Joe Trippi was just on Howard Stern (fucken imagine that a year ago or something) and he was saying that now that they've got this idea out there that the election can be cancelled, some Republican push-polling firm can come out and identify who's voting for whom through some prior surveys, then go around and call Kerry voters and tell them that the election's cancelled so don't go and vote! Oh fuck!

Make sure you call your friends and make sure they're voting, and call them on election day to make sure they vote!

on Wisconsin Public Radio also....it's very, very possible that the dirty tricks could happen and we have to be alert for them.

In his WPR interview, he suggested that the push-polling would probably take place in Minority neighborhoods or possibly other Democratic strongholds.........

on edit: It is also worthy to note that those kind of calls would probably originate "offshore" and be virtually untraceable.

2. ALSO also...remember, they did this LAST TIME, too
With the election flyers with the wrong dates intentionally printed on them.

Vile, evil bastards. Every one.
