In reversal, officials say Mystics' home court can be used as voting supercenter in Southeast D.C.

D.C. neighborhoods east of the Anacostia River may get a voting super center for the presidential election after all.

Events D.C. President Greg O’Dell on Wednesday said he would make the city-owned Entertainment and Sports Arena in Ward 8 available, after The Washington Post reported earlier this week that elections officials had not found a suitable large venue in the city’s historically underserved eastern sector

The D.C. Board of Elections plans to open five voting supercenters across the city to mitigate long lines and promote social distancing amid the coronavirus pandemic.

But none of the locations — at Capital One Arena, Nationals Park, the Omni Shoreham Hotel, Dock 5 at Union Market and the University of the District of Columbia — are in Wards 7 and 8, neighborhoods where elections officials say residents have generally expressed concerns about mail delays and are more likely to want to cast ballots in person.

To indicate this is my own, personal conspiracy fear kicking in...

Aren't all of these sports arenas owned by super rich guys? There seem to be more of them by the day.

If that is the case, don't you think a lot of them support the turd, maybe not openly, but still want him to win?

Paranoid thought... These are voting centers, meaning they are in charge of voting, allowing people to vote, challenging voters on voter eligibility, GATHERING vote totals for the election.

Is there ANY way these votes can be manipulated for the turd? Will there be ANY kind of quality control, monitoring process for validation of the total counts?

I honestly don't put anything past them. They will attempt any way possible to further the turd's corrupt take over of the election results. That includes masquerading their "concern" for the election by offering their arenas as voting sites, while SCREWING US OVER in the process.

Maybe I AM paranoid...
