MSNBC just talking about voter intimidatiion in Del by O'Donnell supporters.

They're trying to block entrances and yelling for her support. Even though they were the required distance away they could still be heard inside the plling places. Happening in 2 counties! Election judges confirmed hat they have received a number of complaints about tis. MSNBC tried to get in touch with the O'Donnell campaign but failed.

2. These people think God compels them to stop other people from masturbating.
Honestly, very little would surprise me about that crowd.

4. Why would they think this would help?
I'd think it would have the opposite effect.

whenever they open their mouths.

13. They probably think they are there to scare away imaginary "New Black Panthers"

Note the reference to "2 counties".

Ummm.... lemme guess.....

(and if you know Delaware, you know which two counties are meant - we only have three counties)

7. Did the election judges call the police?
if they can be heard that far away, they could probably be arrested or ticketed for disorderly conduct and or harassment.

10. I don't know. MSNBC didn't say what the election judges were doing
about the problem.

9. according to WGMD
There have been some reports of voter intimidation from the O’Donnell campaign or her supporters throughout the state. This activity is illegal and contrary to our rule of civility in Delaware. All voters have the right to vote without harassment or intimidation from anyone. Any reports of such activity should be reported to the Voter Protection Hotline, 1-800-930-7114 and the Delaware Department of Elections.

17. Why the hell does the right think preventing votes is the only way to win?
Are they that insecure about their beliefs?
