Schools As Terror Targets

You may recall that a little while back the administration was hyping some dubious-looking intelligence suggesting that terrorists were targeting public schools for terrorist attacks. At the time most people thought that was an effort to stoke Beslan-type fears among so-called "security moms" but it occurs to me that in my admittedly limited experience, public schools are often used as polling places on Election Day. I don't know how widespread that is outside of New York City, but if a lot public schools in, say, Cleveland are used this way then a warning a couple of days before the election that al-Qaeda is planning an Election Day attack on Cleveland schools/voting booths that could be a very effective vote-suppression tactics. Do readers know if schools are used this way in their area?

UPDATE: The fear here is that the administration will name specific schools that are in heavily Democratic neighborhoods. The precinct where I grew up must have been 90 percent Democratic, so even if Republicans were four times as likely to believe the warning and be scared off, the net effect would still be pro-GOP.
