Three simple rules for voting this November 2; assuming of course that you want your vote to count, and to count for whom you support:
1. If challenged by “watchers”, ignore them and go straight to the election officials and report the incident. By doing so, you put responsibility for the challenge on an official and public basis, and those who challenge you will have to give a reason for so doing. They most likely do not have one, other than preventing you as a Democrat from voting for John Kerry, or more importantly, against George W. Bush. If you let them engage you in conversation outside the hearing and sight of those actually responsible for polling at your precinct, they can and will try anything to keep you from voting Democratic, including, I have no doubt, physical restraint. TAKE IT INSIDE!
