All kinds of wild shit can - and on rare occasion does - happen. We need to be there to protect voters.

4. And they have moles in the elections workers
I was at a polling place with a hostile GOP judge. It was a challenge all day, she challenged many votes and I was right there every time. Had to call in lawyers more than once.

3. All this media bs is reminding me of 2004 a little

6. Yup, I wish I was in Florida for the election.
In particular, I'd like to be in black precincts because I'd bet money that the Breitbart people are going to be there disrupting. The guy who put up that New Black Panthers video is a Rubio fan.
