LAST WORD: And the Black Panther controversy?

It got national media attention... but looks like a local tempest in a teapot.
In another video posted on a site called electionjournal.org, police can been seen asking a man with what looked like a nightstick to leave.

But the other panther, Jerry Jackson, turned out to be a legitimate member of the 14th ward's Democratic committee, and was allowed to remain at the polling place throughout the day.

Jackson, who at times appeared rambling and incoherent, said he was there to protect voters, not intimidate them. "I'm making sure that media agitation does not disturb voters."
