Attempted Sabotage Foiled in Florida!

So, check this out. Deerfield Beach, Fla. is one hour south of Palm Beach. Nearly 400 people were planted firmly in line at 6:15 this morning, waiting for the polls to open at 7:00 AM. There is one voting machine to accommodate all of them.

The area almost entirely African American. Many of the people never have voted before. One woman was 101 years old. She was wheeled into the polling place and on her way out she said that before she died, she wanted to vote for a black man.

Election monitors noticed a man in line who appeared to be a voter. Turns out he was a saboteur, telling people the Democrats were supposed to vote at a different location.

Some of the voters said they were robocalled last night. The message -- Democrats weren't supposed to vote until Wednesday.

UPDATE -- Election officials just delivered seven more voting machines.

31. LOL @ Florida

32. 16. This is what is so messed up with this election. The African Americans that have never bothered to get of there lazy butts are finally voting because a black man is running. I do not think they should be allowed to vote if they blew off every other election. It's wrong. My brother in law is a police officer and the African Americans that they arrest are saying that once Obama gets in they won't be able to be arrested and they will have more rights. That right there is the reason why they shouldn't be allowed to vote - they are voting for color not for facts and policies.

36. Stupid people shouldn't vote. Uninformed people should also stay at home. Voting on the basis of race is ridiculous and is probably the only reason this candidate will win this election. Consequently, we're all screwed.

37. Why isn't TMZ reporting on the blacks dressed up as black panthers who are refusing to let white voters vote? I suppose there will be blacks rioting in the states where Osama, I mean Obama is not elected. Watch out white America. The black terrorists, criminals and welfare recipients of America have united.

38. As American citizens 18 years or older, they have a right to vote, no matter how gullible or "stupid." Anyone who says these people do not deserve to vote are ignoring the foundation of which this country was built on.

43. Democrats pull the same crap. Harvey and the other left wing media blogs and newspapers just don't report it.

44. If there's only one voting machine it's probably based on voter number expectations of previous years.
