Once again, out of context. He was referring to Judges that were supposedly going to oversee vote recounts in Florida. However, that was never a standard in Florida, was it?

flap, remember all those disenfranchised voters in FL? turns out, according to democratic Justic officials that, if anything, it was Democrats that were the problem! Mr. Watts said yesterday that "When all these charges first hit, I did my own investigation in Florida and talked to people down there. You did have some people who were stopped, but the police officers were just doing their job." In one instance, where "10 people were stopped, three were black and seven were white," he said, adding that officials had a responsibility to check and see if voters were voting in the wrong precinct. "That has happened in other states, but it just didn't happen with black people. There were red, yellow, black and brown people who did that," he said. "And most of the workers in these places where complaints were lodged were Democrats. They were not Republicans," he said.
