Who does this True the Vote think they are?

I was watching the ABC Evening news tonight and saw how this group is going to be watching for voter fraud. They have also been challenging peoples right to vote. The head of it says they are bipartisan, however she heads up her local tea party? They, in my opinion, should have a restraining order put on to stay away from the voters.

I found this on abcnews,go from Nightline that aired Nov. 2. On this you can see what I am talking about!

be trained to watch for them and if they harass people or cause delays, throw them out. I think it's their goal, to slow things down in largely minority areas. That will discourage voters and cause them to leave.

Many voters will have cell smart phones and should be filming these people. Also report if they are not seen in any mainly conservative areas. I think we know the answer to that one.

These guys are going to be a problem now and, I fear, in other elections if they are not watched.
