Trump supporters swarm to block and intimidate voters at Virginia early voting site

[tulipsandroses]

And so it begins
And what say the AG? And the president? This is America. Unfuckingbelievable.


In a preview of the chaos and voter intimidation that could erupt on election day itself, MAGA-hatted supporters of Donald Trump launched a protest outside an early voting polling place in Fairfax, Virginia this morning.

Anthony Tilghman, an award-winning filmmaker and photographer, was on the scene and posted videos of the Trump supporters’ illegal interference in the electoral process by blocking access to the polling place and intimidating any voters who did not share their enthusiasm for the failed Trump presidency.

It’s uncertain if any potential voters turned away after encountering the demonstration or if any declined to risk the increased chances of exposure to the COVID-19 virus when voters were forced to move to the confined spaces inside the polling place to wait to while avoiding the mostly maskless demonstrators.

Tilghman posted additional footage of the MAGA protestors impeding access to the polls, as well as an update about the dissolution of the demonstration once additional security was brought to the scene to break up the illegal electioneering and voter intimidation.

866-OUR-VOTE is the number to call anywhere in the US to report election interference.

They'll just enrage voters to vote

2. To clarify all voters were safely escorted inside with social distancing

Extra security was called and the trumphumpers were removed to a 40 ft distance, which is VA law.

3. Why do they assume early voters are for Biden?

They could be keeping their own people away.

8. It's a blue area of Virginia.

It's a safe bet vast majority of people voting are not there to vote for Trump.

11. I would love

for one of these morons to try and block me. I have a hair-trigger temper. Alas, we have mail-in/drop-off voting in Colorado.

12. Voting in certain areas will soon become like trying to get into a Planned Parenthood.

I really don't understand why obstruction or intimidation of voters isn't treated as a serious criminal offense.
