Stealing an election?

I wrote earlier this week that I was going to vote in person, rather than by mail, which is what I usually do.  There’s just too much risk that my absentee ballot will “accidentally” get lost in liberal Marin.  Meanwhile, at the polling place, they scan it instantly.  Better odds for a fair outcome.

In Houston, things are getting very ugly when it comes to attempts to subvert the election outcome.  Melissa Clouthier has a long, detailed post about claims that Houston polling places in minority precincts are using harassment and intimidation — including judicial action.

If you find Melissa’s report interesting, please pass it along.  Americans need to be aware of the way in which democracy can be stolen.  Whether it’s Black Panthers whom a radical Justice Department refuses to prosecute, troops who are denied their ballots, or ordinary Americans harassed at polling places, it is all anti-democratic, and can be countered only if Americans are aware and, as they should be, outraged.
