1. I sure hope the pos was arrested and charged with something befitting a shitbag doing this!

[regnaD kciN]

2. Watch Trump declare this is "election interference"...

...and grounds for throwing out Wisconsin's results and having the legislature appoint the electors.

[UTUSN]

3. Hah they're *cracking* or keracking or Krakening themselves!1

[Walleye]

4. Observers should observe, not participate

[Blue Owl]

5. They're not observers -- they're agitators and shit-stirrers

Kick 'em out!

[58Sunliner]

6. That makes 2 they had to remove.

[Cha]

8. Good!

[wnylib]

7. Earlier reports said that there were

two Republican observers at tables where there should be one. Throw out all the extras.

10. Well it does take two Trump supporters to screw in a light bulb, so how can we

be surprised that it takes two to count anything?

[PatrickforO]

9. Geez. And to think these people always accuse US of hating this country.

I would say disputing every single ballot in a predominantly black district is just that - hatred for this country, hatred for democracy, and hatred for fair elections.

And definitely racism - don't forget that.

11. They shoved an election official.

Sounds like a felony to me.

Class I felony
Substantial battery is a Class I felony, punishable by up to three years and six months’ imprisonment and a fine of up to $10,000.

Other types of battery that are punishable at Class I felonies include those by a person under a restraining order and those against a public official, a school district employee, a public transit operator or passenger, or a county, city, town, or village employee.

(Wis. Stat. § § 939.50, 940.19, 940.195, 940.20, 940.201, 940.203, 940.205, 940.207, 940.208.)

Make an example out of them.

12. According to the article...

...the Trump observers are objecting to every ballot.

I'm counting down the milliseconds to the instant the Safe Harbor deadline hits and Trump can't file any more of his bullshit election challenges.

13. These trump idiots remind me of a

puppy that runs around the house chewing everything and shitting everywhere. They have been allowed to go thru life without learning anything.

[North Shore Chicago]

16. Except puppies are cute,

love you unconditionally and the most important difference? Puppies can actually learn.

[kacekwl]

18. Yes, true but whoever

raised these people didn't bother teaching. Incapable maybe.

[Cameliano]

14. Removed and not arrested?

I hope he wasn't allowed to assault somebody without going to jail.

[MissMillie]

15. There should be a law

if you petition for a recount, and your observers obstruct even just ONCE, you lose your recount.

[Maru Kitteh]

17. I don't think so. Consider this:

Trump wins by 11 votes. Biden requests a recount. Trump supporter signs up as a "Biden Observer," pulls a little stunt and thereby promptly gets the Biden recount shut down.

[MissMillie]

19. fair enough (n/t)

.

[bluestarone]

20. Gotta ask AGAIN

Why was the observer NOT arrested? Total bullshit!
