Thought this was illegal?
BREAKING: NAACP Takes Over Houston Polling Station, Advocates for President Obama - Katie Pavlich
the NAACP was inside the building, wearing the NAACP clothing and caps and were handing out water and moving people from the back of the lines to the front of the lines,” Rockford said.

At this point, NAACP members were instructed to turn their clothing inside out, which they refused to do and said they weren’t going to stop their actions inside the polling place. Their behavior and actions to move people to the front of the line continued for the rest of the evening.

isn't this completely illegal? Why not simply call the police if they are advocating for a politician in the polling center!?

The only "news" sites where this story can be found is in RIGHT wing and CONSERVATIVE affiliated sources. Accordingly THREE people, allegedly wearing NAACP identifiable clothing (I guess that makes them bonifide members) allegedly "took over" one polling place somewhere in Houston. Yeah, right.

Mark this story as TYPICAL RIGHT WING ATTEMPT TO STIR UP RACIST SENTIMENT as a LAST MINUTE TACTIC to SWAY THE ELECTORATE.

What lowlifes, eh?

think it's only illegal in states where they've limited the early voting for the urban areas and expanded the hours for the Republican suburbs! (And in Ohio FIRED the 2 county clerks who refused to submit to the dictum from the Sec. of State!):eek::cool::cool:

Exactly. After months, no, YEARS of NATIONWIDE efforts to DISENFRANCHISE VOTERS, REMOVE VALID REGISTRANTS FROM THE ROLLS, DISCARD REGISTRATION FORMS, BUY VOTING MACHINES, DISTRIBUTE PHONY AND MISLEADING INFORMATION REGARDING VOTING, and LIMIT VOTING ACCESSIBILITY FOR REGISTERED VOTERS IN SPITE OF COURT ORDERS TO THE CONTRARY, these fuckers (conservative news sources and supporters) want to try to make a story out of three alleged NAACP members supposedly "taking over" a polling place???

Incredible.

That's because it doesn't fit into the left-wing narrative. CNN is paid by the government to run stories that the government wants.

Really? I'd like to see the proof on that one. Or is that proof filed under the proof that tax cuts = growth? Or 'rampant voter fraud exists' file?

I guess the days are short and Mitt and Gang are getting utterly desperate so time to through the race baiting canard out there(again). They thought they could wring one more election out before demographics doomed the party to the dustbin forever.

Its time for an education. The NAACP, has as much right to be at the polls as True the Vote does. True the Vote is a right wing organization sponsored by the Koch Brothers and Carl Rove. There jobs are to intimidate citizens and in whatever way to skew the vote in favor of the Right. True the Vote has no place inside to polling center as does the NAACP. All things being equal, I'm glad the NAACP was there. And I expect them to be there throughout the voting process.

An ABC news report on True the Vote:

'True the Vote' Volunteers Intimidating Voters? | Video - ABC News

And this N.Y.Times article:

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/17/u...y-closely-for-voter-fraud.html?pagewanted=all

"Ms. Engelbrecht, [founder of True the Vote] who at 42 is younger than most of the Tea Party members she addresses around the country, said that until four years ago she was apolitical, a churchgoing mother of two who ran a successful oil field machinery business with her husband in Fort Bend County, Tex.

“Then in 2008, I don’t know, something clicked,” she said. “I saw our country headed in a direction that, for whatever reason — it didn’t hit me until 2008 — this really threatens the future of our children.”"

Yeah...something "clicked" alright....

Just like the Fox story, they trotted out a few years ago, where there were two black men, hanging out at one polling place dressed like Black Panthers. And to hear Fox News tell it, it was an entire Brigade of them.

honey mustard, you are apparently in panic mode. this happens when the losing side becomes super paranoid about the fact the NAACP has its Houston office in the same building as the registrar recorder's office.

They're not in panic mode. This is the TYPICAL last minute REPUBLICAN "Willie Horton style" race baited PLOY - that they and their minions were directed to put into the media - all to play to the baser emotions of the electorate by stirring up anti Obama sentiment based on BULLSHIT.
