Slimy Tactics of Republicans

Here's an interesting story I heard on Fresh Air on NPR about Voter Intimidation Efforts In Philadelphia.
Zack Stalberg worked as a journalist for more than 30 years before becoming president of the Committee of Seventy.

Fresh Air from WHYY, October 8, 2008 · Fliers warning that people with outstanding warrants or unpaid parking tickets could be arrested if they show up at the polls on election day appeared recently in predominantly African-American neighborhoods of Philadelphia. Zach Stalberg, the president of the nonpartisan watchdog group Committee of Seventy, suggests that a Republican Party supporter may have posted the fliers in an effort discourage voters.

A native Philadelphian, Stalberg was the editor of the Philadelphia Daily News for 20 years. In 2005, he became president of the Committee of Seventy, a group founded in 1904 with a mission to improve the Philadelphia region by fighting corruption and demanding ethical conduct of public officials.
