Default How are you suppressing the black vote in your neck of the woods?


It just seems silly that all us Republicans know we're all planning to suppress the black vote in our own states and counties. But since we're *not allowed* to talk about it, none of us really knows what exactly this means to another.

So I thought maybe we could use this thread as a way to exchange ideas, and make sure we're all up to speed on the best methods, timing, where to put our resources, and what not.

If this is an attempt at humor . . . you failed miserably.

If you are serious . . . you would probably find a more receptive audience at www.kkk.com.

I think just the standard measures will apply.

Make sure the polling places were the majority of black voters vote, are understaffed, maybe have a machine or two that isn't even working, make sure the staff takes its time checking out the credentials of every voter very carefully, no matter how long it takes.

Since most Black Voters have jobs such that they can't really take time off and vote, they will probably wait until after work to vote. Make sure the polls don't open to 10:00am and have a lot of the polls close promptly at 5:00pm. Then make sure all the other polls close exactly on time, no matter how long the line is of Blacks waiting to vote.

Citizens run polling places and are usually volunteers and both Republican and Democrats must be in attendance. So first off the Republicans must gun down [we are the only ones with guns so this part is easy and is part of the conspiracy of why the assault weapon ban will not be renewed] the Democrats and any independent or Green Party personnel etc. Once this is done and the bodies stashed away, we can then impose all sorts of draconian measures on people that may not be voting for Bush. Like insisting on pre-registration to vote if that is required, a proper Id, and a signature that matches up to voting rolls.

You can also give bogus instructions to non-Bush voters thus invalidating their votes. The hard part, of course, is identifying quickly and on sight only, the non-Bush voters. Perhaps a psychic at each polling location would be useful in pointing them out. Perhaps some profile of what a non-Bush voting looks like, acts like, how they walk and talk etc would be useful also. Extensive classes could be given in profile identification and then harassment of non-Bush voters. Perhaps the republicans could use some secret stealth technology to switch the majority of Kerry votes to Bush votes, thus avoiding the more brutal and obvious tactics of violence, harassment, and cruel polling hours that will always weigh heavier on non-Bush voters as opposed to Bush voters. This perhaps would be a better tactic.

Lets not suppress the vote, voting is a civic duty. I personally want to encourage all liberals to get out and vote on November 3rd.

I don't think they are worried about supressing the non-Bush voter. They are supressing the Black voter. If the two Blacks that would have voted for Bush get caught up in the mess, oh well.

Installing friendly partisan companies in public offices at taxpayer expense and giving them access to private records to do enormous searches of records funded with public money to single out anyone with a name that even sounds like it might possibly be the same as that of a felon and then summarily declaring them unable to vote, but not letting them know it till they show up at the polls, will work fine, just like last time. If many thousands of mistakes are made, again, that's a price worth paying. More than ever.

Also, lots of intimidating police presence -- dogs are always a nice touch -- especially in neighborhoods that often feel under seige by police, should work again this time too.

Just so you know, the only states where the polls close before 7pm local time are Hawaii, Indiana, and Kentucky, which all close at 6pm. Crap, some states even stay open til 8 or 9 at night. Maybe I can just leave early and turn off the light and everyone will think there's no one home.
