Republicans' fabled 'GOTV Machine' doesn't really exist...
it's a myth to provide cover for their election-thefts.
Be alert, Good Citizens.
That is all.

1. I have seen it in my area. They have zealots out pounding the streets-
I know a guy who is one of these goddamn robots who puts on a sport coat with a necktie and goes door to door. They are absolutely committed. Don't discount them. Sort of like the Jehovah's Witnesses who are completely zealous on their mission.

4. They're like zombies
Every two years, they rise from their graves and shamble to the autodialers and the precinct maps. We see them all the time when we're out doing the same thing. Except there are more of them. I wish it WAS a myth. They only make up about a third of the electorate, but they vote like crazy.

2. Absolutely correct
Their GOTV Machine is really a bunch of carefully distributed little machines that say "Diebold" on them and leave no paper trail.
