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.

49. The fact that a lot of the people are voting for the first time shows their lack of patriotism. If you really cared about this country, you would vote every presidential election, not just one where a "black" man is running!!

50. 36. 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.

It's REALLY REALLY SAD that as this country is on the verge of change. And instead of accepting a Black (half black...whatever he is not the typical OLD GREY WHITE MAN) as a President commited to Uniting this country we still have IGNORANT people like this who will keep their racist attitudes and continue to ATTEMPT to tear this country apart...but you know what???? IT'S NOT WORKING!!!!!!!!!!!! ALL HAIL PRESIDENT OBAMA!!!!! Why don't you guys move to an ALL WHITE country...just keep searching until you find it and STAY THERE!!!!!!!!!!

BY NOT DOING SO WE WILL FALL AND CONTINUE TO BE LOOKED DOWN UPON. ITS OKAY FOR EVERYONE ELSE TO DO IT BUT NOT BLACK PEOPLE HUH? YOU PEOPLE FROM OTHER RACES HAVE NOT BEEN THROUGH WHAT WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH. OBAMA IS WELL QUALIFIED.UNITED WE STAND!! DONT TRY TO TAKE AWAY OUR PRIDE BECAUSE WE VOTED FOR A BROTHER AND A REMINDER THERE IS NO RACE CALLED HALF BLACK/ WHITE. SINCE WHEN YOU ACKNOWLEDGE SOMEONE AS HALF. ONE DROP AND YOU ARE BLACK

52. To ICON,

So Acorn and all the 666,000 fake people they signed up in Ohio that don't even exist? - What about that, were they GOP as well? - That's almost three quarters of a million fraudulent votes, don't be so self rightous, if you're dumb enough to believe that dirty tricks are only limited to one party then you should be with the group of retards that actually believed they should show up on Wednesday, wake up, that's how politics are run...on BOTH sides, they're all filthy liars, and to that old lady who wanted to vote for a "Black" man, tell me that isn't racist, giving somebody their vote soley based on their color!

53. "ICON"

Why don't you go out and get a job instead of commenting over and over again under various monikers.

54. "Not sure which I'm more disturbed by, the despicable actions of a man trying to sway an election or the fact that there's only ONE voting machine for a whole community of voters!! Both facts are mind blowing."

Agreed. Although I'm glad for more press coverage on this, what does this have to do with entertainment?

56. I DONT SEE WHERE IT SAID PPL BELIEVE THAT A**HOLE , JUST MERELY COMMENTING THAT THEY WERE TOLD THAT. SHAME ON YOUR A**HOLES FOR CALLING THOSE PEOPLE DUMB. LIKE IT WAS SAID, MOST HAVENT VOTED BEFORE AND ARE MOST LIKELY NERVOUS AND WANT TO MAKE THEIR VOTE COUNT. SHAMELESS HOW PPL WILL DO ANYTHING TO WIN.

57. "OBAMA IS WELL QUALIFIED."

if you mean least qualified Presidential candidate ever, then yes you're correct...

58. This only proves how much this country is still divided. Anyone so desparate to deceive fellow Americans to try to change the outcome of an election that's suppose to be all of our right, is not what this country is all about and I for one would not want this person on my side.

59. TMZ, don't worry about it. Philadelphia has already thrown out GOP election officials so they can commit all types of liberal/democrat fraud. Then, there are the military votes not being counted, ACORN all over the country, dead people and Dallas Cowboys and Mickey Mouse all voting for BHO.

60. Me thinks jazi is one of those dumb people.
