Suggestions for pissing off Freepers while waiting in line to vote?

[Purrfessor]

I've already voted by absentee ballot, but for those of you who will be in line on Tuesday, we should offer up some ideas.

So, here's my suggestion: Take along a copy of Kitty Kelly's book, The Family: The Real Story of the Bush Dynasty, and read the real smarmy parts out loud.

You should be able to cover quite a bit of text in 3 to 4 hours of waiting, and imagine having a captive audience of Freepers around you.

If you're lucky, you might even cause some of them to leave without voting.

1. Or be more subtle . . . take a walkman, turn it up full volume,

but put the headphones around your neck instead of in your ears. . . loop a mix CD of all the bands on the Vote for Change tour :).

2. you're lucky

in New Jersey, there is no electioneering within 100 feet of the polling place

not like that where I used to live in PA, though

enjoy

3. Would that be considered "campaign material?"

4. Or, you might start a fight....

Everybody's got the right to vote, even if they're not the brightest bulbs on the tree.

There's going to be plenty enough people trying to disrupt and drive voters away, some of whom may not be voting for Bush. Why be yet another one of them.

Besides, it's no fair picking on the logically impaired.

5. Might be considered political

within 100 ft of polling place, so when you are within 100 ft cover it.
Try to get a copy of the LWV or ballot and have it marked with your choices so you can speed up the process (which cannot be seen by another within 100 ft of the polling place).
As an election judge, after being at the polls since 6 AM, I don't want to stay until midnight or longer, especially with no breaks. If voting doesn't give you time to eat your sandwich, you are up shit creek.
And please be polite, if a judge doing their duty has to request that you do something required by law.
If you really want to piss-off freepers: go to your campaign Kerry-Edwards HQs and do some canvassing, phoning, visibility campaigning, putting reminder polling place door hangers on Democrats door-knobs at 4:00 am on the 2nd, volunteer to take disabled, elderly etc. people to the polling place, etc.
DO SOMETHING CONSTRUCTIVE!
I have worn out my vocal cords, tennis shoes, etc. paid gas money, time, less sleep, etc. for some time now.

And if there is another SELECTION, for Dog/God's sake hie thee to the streets!

6. Your time would be better spent ensuring that everyone

got a chance to vote, and that their vote was counted. A Bush vote doesn't necessarily mean they're a freeper - and even if they are a freeper, they should be allowed to vote in peace.

7. Wear a shirt that says "Protect Our Civil Liberties".

School Teachers Are Threatened With Arrest For Wearing "Protect Our Civil Liberties."

In Medford, OR, three school teachers "were threatened with arrest and escorted from the event after they showed up wearing T-shirts with the slogan ‘Protect our civil liberties.' All three said they applied for and received valid tickets from Republican headquarters in Medford," the Associated Press reported. "The women said they did not intend to protest. "I wanted to see if I would be able to make a statement that I feel is important, but not offensive, in a rally for my president," said Janet Voorhies, 48, a teacher in training. "We chose this phrase specifically because we didn't think it would be offensive or degrading or obscene," said Tania Tong, 34, a special education teacher." Republican officials attempted to distance themselves from the event. A Bush campaign spokesman, Tracey Schmitt, said: "It is not the position of the campaign that wearing a T-shirt that says protect civil liberties is enough to conclude someone is disruptive."

"Protect Our Civil Liberties" is a non partisan slogan guaranteed to piss off a freeper.

And anyone that considers that electioneering should move to China.

8. Read The Pet Goat

I don't have the link, but I know you can download it and print out a copy.

11. Simply showing up will do the trick.

Especially in Ohio. Secretary of State J. Kenneth Blackwell is a mean-spirited wingnazi and he probably doesn't want to see anyone at the polls.

12. Wow. You people have no sense of humor...
