Republican misrepresenting himself as Democrat
Today I was canvassing a list of low preforming Democrats. These are people who will vote a straight ticket, if they vote.

Well, there were several homes in this lower middle class neighborhood and on my list with signs for the Republican state rep candidate in their yard. So I started asking what's up?

That typical snake-in-the-grass Republican had canvassed the neighborhood lying about his affiliation to get the good sign locations. I confirmed it over and over.

I notified the real Democrats campaign, but there isn't much they can do about it.

5. Corners, high traffic areas.
But it looked like after a while the scam worked so well that he was just blanketing the precinct with his signs.

3. I'd knock on the door of each and every one of the homes...
...and tell them that they'd been snookered by a Repug.

Betcha that liar would lose every single vote in that neighborhood.
