In 2008, he shot a video of the New Black Panthers blocking the entrance to a polling location with a strong Democratic majority in Philadelphia during the 2008 United States Elections. The video was posted on YouTube and went viral with over a million views, prompting a Congressional investigation. Morse subsequently regretted the video's success, as it was regularly repeated on Fox News early in Barack Obama's presidential career. This allowed 2016 presidential candidate Donald Trump to warn Pennsylvania voters to watch out for fraud from Democratic supporters, a charge that Morse refuted, citing that the incident he witnessed was isolated. The Philadelphia incident became known as the New Black Panther Party voter intimidation case.
