(23,003 posts)It's the only time it happened. They were questioning most dark skinned folks or folks who looked down on their luck if they were registered and asking them to prove it, but the security guards made them leave, so they just went about 100 yrds away (the legal limit) and resumed yelling at people, but they didn't actually touch anyone or stop anyone as the guards were watching them closely by that time. It's against the law for anyone other than 1 person - unarmed - to represent each party at the polling plce, so inside should never be a problem unless there are major crazies. This time they are allegedly training Proud Boys to be their poll watchers, but each state is different so don't know if they are competent enough to accomplish that. If a Proud Boy, as a monitor, was there, who knows what those asses would do?
I do think almost 100% of this, if it gets bad at all, would happen on election day to make more impact. That and shorter (praying for this) lines on early voting are why I will be going tomorrow. Have my chairs ready and will bring my water jug, big hat, Kendle, phone and snacks. 3 more votes for Biden tomorrow.
