    that’s how fascism works. use the threat of violence to address a problem that doesn’t exist, in order to create the problem you claimed to be addressing

      That’s not what poll watchers do. Poll watchers are supposed to report improprieties. They want you to think it’s violence so when they sneakily contest random areas ballots it flies over your head.

        please. the “voter fraud” “problem” was never a problem until fucking trump wanted it to be, because he couldn’t stand the fact that he didn’t win the popular vote by 500 billion votes in 2016

        poll watchers GTFO. trump’s lawyers refused to make any claims about “improprieties” in front of actual judges every time because there were none.

        yes, it’s a fucking threat of violence, because you have people watching you while you vote, as if you’re already under suspicion of doing something wrong. aka voter suppression of people who don’t plan to vote for the party assigning “poll watchers”

        there is no rationalizing this fascist bullshit, but by all means–keep trying
