Yep, Fox just reported that Republicans in Milwaukee are claiming that
tires were slashed on vehicles that were to be used to haul poll watchers
to voting places.

Here's another example:
http://www.prospect.org/weblog/
VOTER SUPPRESSION WATCH: FLORIDA EDITION. A Democratic source tells me, and
this article in a local paper confirms, that registered Democrats in
Florida are being besieged with automated calls informing them that their
voting precincts have been moved. Some of the calls apparently provide a
number to call for more information -- the number being for John Kerry's
local campaign headquarters. So it's a nice twofer. Confuse the voters, and
jam up Kerry's phone lines. One county supervisor quoted in the article
calls these calls "criminal."

Elsewhere, the Miami Herald reports that the GOP has now decided to use a
discredited and list of alleged "felons" -- read: black people!
-- to challenge voters at the polls, and examines rumors of other
robo-calls with misleading messages.
