FBI Probe into VA Voter Intimidation
Edited on Wed Nov-08-06 02:14 PM by Kristi1696
Has anybody heard anything more about this? The Dems need to follow up on this in case Virginia goes to a recount.

Given that in many exit polls voters claimed "Corruption" as the issue most affecting their vote, the Republicans should think twice before asking for a recount if it means highlighting these acts of obvious corruption in VA.

IMO, we should push this issue.

1. If the voter intimidation didn't take place Webb would have won by a wider
margin. Allen & whomever helped him intimidate voters need to go to jail - there shouldn't even be a recount.

2. We need to follow this
whether it goes to a recount or not!

America needs to know that the Republicans feel the need to scare voters away in order to win elections.

3. Or, as in the case of Michael Steele
in Maryland, misrepresent themselves on fliers as Dems!

Did not experience it first hand as VA voter but it cannot be discounted or ignored.
