Is this crap legal??

[maxrandb]

Saw the below post on a wingnut site. Wouldn't this be intimidation...AND...who is to decide that something is fraudulent??? Some idiotic knuck-dragging Teabagger???? Some inbred fuck gets in my face with a cellphone camera while I'm casting my ballot, I'm liable to stomp a hole through them.

Early voting has started - and, of course, that means that vote fraud has started as well. I want you to become aware that you hold a powerful anti-fraud weapon in your hand - your Smart Phone!

If you live in a state that has started voting, or if you know someone in such a state, spread the word.

The method is easy - take a pic or video of the fraudulent activity with your smart phone. Geotag the pic or video. Then upload it (youtube, facebook, twitter, FR, etc.) and share it with the world! If you don't know how to do this, I'll bet you know a tech-savvy friend who can help.

A picture is worth a thousand words - a video, millions.

For egregious situations, alert local or State authorities (Republican, if possible). Don't bother with the DOJ - that would be equivalent to reporting anti-Semitic activities to the SS!

Do your part to stamp-out and expose fraud!

Of course, be responsible - don't do anything dumb in violation of the law, like taking a video inside someone else's voting booth!

1. so what the hell kind of fraud are they going to see? Mr X voting for Mr Y? (And, they know

Mr Y and Mr X if no Mr Y)

2. It varies, but generally, it's illegal . . .

to take photos or video in polling places. I hope these dumbasses try it . . . I would be the first one to call 911 if I saw someone with a camera near the voting booths. They will surely have some spainin' to do!

6. +1. Any time I've voted, the "no camera, no cellphone" point is far enough away from the check-in

tables and voting booths that you couldn't take video of someone actually being turned away.

3. Something just hit me. The "inbred fucks" you refer to have probably been told

to capture fraud examples (bogus is ok !) and report them to beef up the reported fraud numbers to justify the ID push next go around.

4. I don't know if it's legal but

it makes no sense. You cannot tell by looking at someone if they have a legal right to vote. It seems to me if you're going to take pictures, IT SHOULD BE OF YOUR OWN VOTE. I plan to take a pic of my votes so there is no mistake about who I voted for all the way down the ticket. Taking pics of other people's votes just seems very inappropriate and intrusive.

9. Oh, repukes can tell . . .

if you're not an old white man, you are most likely committing voter fraud. "Who the hell let these women and minorities in here?" You know that's what they think!

5. Snap photos of TBaggers griping about the government, while voting at government polls, driving on

roads, collecting Social Security, etc.

7. Prediction: Teabaggers will fuck with the wrong people.

Seriously - most Dems are well aware of their sleazy tactics and I don't think any foolery will be well tolerated.

8. Pathetic!

They assume it doesn't happen on their side? (Not saying it happens on our side)

[matt819]

10. Read that again - It makes no sense

What are these crazies going to photograph?

Egregious or dangerous situations? Where are these nuts voting? Afghanistan?

Do these idiots even realize how stupid they are?

11. Looking for the buses full of out of state voters.

Some lady in Texas, a TP member I believe, has them all convinced that bus loads of illegal voters have been pulling up to polling places all over the country. Only problem is the buses are equipped with Klingon cloaking devices and can't actually be seen unless they they use their weapons.

12. Ha ha!

13. Not in PA - you can't even answer a call in the polling place (booth or not).
