The recent appearance of chanting Trump supporters outside an early voting site in Fairfax County, Virginia, has also raised alarms.
The incident led Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring, a Democrat, to issue an opinion noting that there are federal and state laws prohibiting voter intimidation.
This tactic has been his MO for decades. This election and aftermath will be the biggest test to the Republic since the Civil War.
Not baseless!! NPR is baseless!
All Governors should make statements that there will be local and State law enforcement officers at every polling location to enforce law and ensure that there is no voter intimidation. I saw that Intimidating voters is a five-year felony for each count.
'Poll watchers' is his code for 'voting intimdators'. Fuck that. We antifa are already arranging units for 'poll security' of our own, by state. Prude Boobs, stand down or you'll get hurt.
What are these MAGA goons going to watch? There's 3 of them and 400 voters waiting in line. The 'watchers' better consider the odds. I'm coming with knuckles.
You really have to be a weak person to be intimidated by a poll watcher.
They can’t come in the building and can only legally be across the street from polling places. Do research ahead of time to know who to contact if you see anything wrong but don’t let them keep you from voting. This is another attempt to stop you from voting, don’t fall for it
Well, if anyone knows about Voter Intimidation it would be the Democrats! I can see how a bunch of Old White People could cause the kind of HAVOC in our polling places that is usually reserved for the Golden Corral on Wednesday Nights!
Would be great if you would just give facts and stop using divisive terms like baseless claims -
The Democrat playbook has already been revealed. They are trying to sew chaos with mail-in ballots. Then they accuse the President of their own tactics just like Russian collusion. They cannot win without cheating.
If democrats can lie in people face about Russian, Ukraine, racist and more lies, I strongly believe they will fake voting. 99 percent
you're just scaremongering the low-informed voters
i have received numerous emails from liberals seeking out people to be poll watchers wonder if these are the kind they are seeking
Can we please get the UN to supervise our election We do not want what is happening to Belarus RIGHT NOW to happen in the United States. We are a democratic nation and both party’s should welcome the UN to observe.
Election Protection Hotline: (866) 687-8683
True
SenateGOP still say nothing. COWARDS
Scrolling your posts tonight NOT. 10-0. Negative posts of trump to any bad about Biden. You biased? For the record they both suck
NPR is supposed to be unbiased because it receives federal funding. I move that all federal funding for be withdrawn.
FakeNews
O, THEY MUST GO TO WATCH NO FRAUD TAKE PLACE
Many thanks to NPR for motivating me to be a poll watcher.
Somebody should be watching, it’s important.
And republicans support this
Baseless Claims? -
Democrats already tried to steal an election. In fact the Ballot topic is exactly the point Trump won the debate.
This is Trump trying to scare people into not voting. propaganda DumpTrump2020
😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Vote no matter what. We out number those racists. Show unity and strength. We are the USA
We’re headed down to the creek tomorrow to look for ballots. Problem is there is a windmill you have to walk past and I’m just not in the mood for cancer.
You’re raising fears by fixating on speculations about Trump and not reporting about the actual dangers of a JoeBiden administration.
DefundNPR
Who could have imagined how dangerous voting would become compared to 2016?. Between covid and the trumpers; I would go to the polls if I had to. Fortunately I'm in California so I can vote by mail.. VoteByMail
NPR is full of leftist hacks who propagate fake news. Trump2020
I guess I'll go disguised as a trump supporter. I'll wear tacky clothes, black out my teeth and lay on a thick accent while talking too loud about fake news. It'll be like Halloween a few days later.
You are talking about those who fear getting caught you know.
Baseless claim? How so?
The Proud Boys outside voting places - how democratic.
What are they watching for exactly?
Trump's threats create such cognitive dissonance for me. He's the PRESIDENT of the US, but he sounds like he's running for student council. Instead of whining & pouting he could've gotten off his lard ass & worked to ensure a free & fair election. He's had 4 yrs to do that!
Trump's strategy for election victory is as all thug autocrats; suppress the vote through intimidation.
Trump is running against democracy
Watch what very carefully? He is losing it. Who stands around in a polling place 👀 people?
Vote Early. Almost a million people have already voted. Voter turnout must be epic this year. Biden2020 AmericaOrTrump
garden4u_wa Isn’t voter intimidation illegal? Can poll workers keep people from loitering?
Again TRUMP=TRUTH!
Another misdirection? This likely indicates that whatever the GOP and Trump's henchmen are doing to rig or taint election results won't be occurring at the polls.
Intimidating voters is illegal. I can't wait for all these Trump supporters to 'guard' polls with AR15's and break the law by doing so.
Isn’t there a law they have to be a certain number of feet from entrances?
“Where’s the beef?” “There you go again.” “Stand back and stand by!”?
Well, if I see intimidation at the polls I'll summon election officials and law enforcement to deal with them
I fear the police will do nothing to intervene to stop this obstruction.
Illegal on so many levels. He's scared. He should be, tax collector is coming for him.
Baseless. Are you really that biased.
Donald Trump refused to denounce white supremacists on the debate stage last night. VOTE HIM OUT.
Even if one of those proud boys shoots me dead, bitch better count my vote
they found trump ballots in the gutters and 100k ballots were resent in brooklyn because of false addresses and names. and you're telling me voting by mail is safe?
