Rethug DIRTY TRICKS and how to fight back! |
|
Per MSNBC, not only are the Rethugs Robocalling to push Democratic voters away in general-- in Virginia, they're calling/mailing African-American voters, falsely implying that the voters could be severely fined or even jailed for voting in the wrong precinct and should stay home! The Rethugs have gone so low here they're just about digging underground.
Don't let them get away with this! The Rethugs are counting on us responding ineffectually, failing to deal with this until relatively ineffectual court suits after the election-- we have to address this chicanery now!
The news channels are still going, and of course the morning news and the radio stations tomorrow will be covering everything that's happening at the late hours here. We might be able not only to neutralize these GOP dirty tricks but to turn them around to our advantage-- make them backfire on the Rethugs.
Every time you get "Robocalled," or, if you're an African-American voter and have received any of those misleading communications from the George Allen campaign, write down the incident and note specific details-- extra points to anything particularly egregious and/or outrageous, and especially to any full-fledged taping. All through the night, and especially in the morning-- get this material to the radio shows and morning news programs. The news stations and programs, the radio channels-- they'll all eat this up, this is major ratings fodder for them.
What we're aiming for here is TOTAL MEDIA SATURATION-- make sure this goes nationwide, all over the place tomorrow, that the Republicans are so pathetic and desperate that they're undermining the democratic election process in the US itself! If this goes nationwide, and if it's repeated overnight and throughout the morning, it will be one of the most prominent things on voters' minds when they enter the voting booth!

They may use a computer-calling program which could hide the identity, though I'd bet that in some cases, they may not be so careful. It's worth trying it out at least-- the more data, the better!
