"SNIP....

As threats to disrupt Election Day grow, some members of a far-right Trump superfan group are boasting about securing positions as polling station managers and supervisors while dozens of them are advocating violence on November 3.

“Consider this polling station...ON LOCK DOWN”

That’s what a member of the far-right message board TheDonald.win posted this week, alongside a picture of a South Carolina poll manager’s handbook.

The poster, utahbeachballs1944 responded to other users’ comments, saying “my polling place is gonna be like trying to enter North Korea. Fucking LOCKED DOWN” and added: “I will be honoring the BLM movement by working in Blackface.”

....SNIP"

1. Sounds like a lot of talk so far...I'm sure anyone working in blackface would make the news nt

[liberal N proud]

2. The Democratic Party has hundreds of lawyers just for this crap

They have a voter protection team. I have done it in the past, unable to this year for several reasons. Wish I was able. But the team will monitor the situation and lawyers standing by just to deal with instigators.

3. No, they are *claiming* that they've infiltrated polling stations.

If they show up and pull any of that shit, they will be yanked. To me, it just looks like bullshit.

4. Sounds like they'll be locking down GOPer leaning areas. Screw em.

5. Funny

4channers never leave mommy's basement. Talk the talk shit heads

[dchill]

6. They sound like their party was pooped.

[Progressive Jones]

7. People like this are why I think we should have to pass a test to be a citizen. nt

8. We need a protocol/mantra for the left to march by these monsters. Something

like "When you are lining up to vote in Hell Keep going and vote". Or my favourite

9. Maybe we could get volunteers to monitor lines and walk around with cell phone rechargers

and off free recharges to everyone as a good demonstration of civil society?

10. Pretty easy...

Every BOE is desperate for staff. But that doesn’t mean they can impose their will on everyone else.

11. Shouldn't be too difficult to track down "utahbeachballs1944". And if he does as he claims...

perhaps he'll get arrested like this Republican asshole in NC:

12. Can I bring my leaded cat o' nine tails, or should I stick with my battery-operated cattle prod?

Or just my shoulder bag, which only FEELS like I carry bricks in it? And my 4- inch heels, of course! Have not taken them all out to play in quite a while. . . .
