THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
The caller interrupting a North Side couple's
dinner earlier this week said he was from the
Franklin County Board of Elections.
You and fellow IPers may want to check out the Verified Voter
Foundation and CPSR-run "Election Incident Reporting System"
(https://voteprotect.org/epc/index.php). This is where phone calls to
the massive People for the American Way "Election Protection"
(http://www.electionprotection2004.org) are being logged, disseminated
and operators either answer questions live or have election observers
dispatched to the scene.
At the moment it's still a work-in-progress but it appears they're
already tracking incidents in "early voting" and pre-election
locations. For instance, here's the incidents in the aforementioned
Franklin County, Ohio which has 13 reported incidents:

Check out Miami-Dade County:

or Atkinson County, Georgia which seems to have something interesting
happening to Hispanic voters:

This will be fascinating to watch - I'm volunteering as they not only
need people to staff phones, polling locations and be mobile, but
technical experts as well from PHP programmers to database wonks to
researchers.
Enjoy.
