Voter Beware: Election scams are ramping up

It's that time of the election season where the election dirty tricks are being pulled out of the bag. Wired magazine reports on an old one being resurrected in Florida. This old trick is a phone call by an alleged election official telling Democrats that they can vote by phone. While, in Virginia country a scam is being run that tells Democratic voters to come to the polls the day after the election. The status quo is coming out swinging with voter suppression, intimidation, tampering and other forms of fraud. I personally have never been asked for identification when voting, but I am going to be sure to cover all bases and at the least take a form of identification with me.
