BREAKING: NAACP Takes Over Houston Polling Station, Advocates for President Obama
"I went to the polling supervisor and let her know that it was not appropriate that they were in the building handing out water. She ignored me. I repeated my statement. She told me that she would handle it. She did nothing. I then went to the assistant supervisor and he stood up, walked over to another table and then sat down. I then walked into the waiting room and they were reloading another dolly with more cases of water," Rockford said in a True the Vote incident report.

After handing out water and advocating for President Obama, the NAACP members started handpicking and moving people to the front of a long voting line inside the polling place according to the incident report. After multiple complaints from voters about the line cutting, Rockford received a phone call from downtown telling her to “stand down.”

“All of the sudden one of the clerks, Dayan Cohen, said that someone wanted to speak to me on the phone. It was someone from downtown. I got on the phone and she said she was from downtown and that I needed to stand down and that it was okay for the NAACP to be within 100 ft. and they could hand out water. I told her that the NAACP was inside the building, wearing the NAACP clothing and caps and were handing out water and moving people from the back of the lines to the front of the lines,” Rockford said.

At this point, NAACP members were instructed to turn their clothing inside out, which they refused to do and said they weren’t going to stop their actions inside the polling place. Their behavior and actions to move people to the front of the line continued for the rest of the evening. Texas State Representative Sylvester Turner, a former Texas NAACP leader, was also seen outside the building talking with voters.

“The NAACP basically ran this poll location and the judges did nothing about it,” Rockford said.​

Illegal. No question.

But Obama boot-lickers will see nothing wrong with it.
 
Houston you say... what percentage of blacks, whites and Latino's were waiting in line?
Which group were the NAACP members talking too?

Were the police called?

I know it's a difficult time for you, and clearly your emotions are on the brink, but all they need to do is call the police.

Buck up!
 
You're kidding, right?

Sorry, are laws concerning behavior at elections common knowledge? Perhaps it needs its own sub-forum.
I haven't ever been to a polling place that didn't have numerous placards around the building, denoting the limit beyond which electioneering is prohibited.

Fair enough, I honestly didn't pay much attention to them.

It makes me wonder even more why nobody did anything about something seemingly so serious.

Illegal how?

They should be...especially if your organization is going to visit polling places.

Texas Election Code - Section 85.036. Electioneering Prohibited - Texas Attorney Resources - Texas Laws

That took two seconds to find. Apparently, the Houston NAACP didn't care to look.

You know squat.

But you just make sure you don't condemn Democrats for breaking the law. You'll get called a liar and a racist.
 
Fortunately TX is going for Romney.
But I would expect Justice to have zero interest in the case. And we'll see much more of this. Once they declined to prosecute the New Black Panthers it opened the door to more and more shenanigans.
Repeal the 14th Amendment.
