We have to monitor Trump's poll watchers

[AtomicBiblePerson]

Okay as most of you know, Trump’s people are going to be employing hundreds if not thousands of unlicensed “poll watchers” who are going to be at the polls nationwide tomorrow to intimidate voters.

If we go to the polls and we see these people, it means the authorities have not done anything about these people so we must take matters into our own hands.

First, we must be sure these people are Trump poll workers; these people will not be just hanging around quietly-most likely you will be able to pick them out. If they are not interfering and intimidating people there is no reason to suspect them, but I promise you they will be there; an obvious sign would be overt Trump regalia but most likely they will be more covert than that. Simply wearing a candidate pin can get you kicked out.

Secondly, poll watchers have a right to be there but they have to be trained and professional. If they fail to uphold that and use their “position” to intimidate we have to make sure to hold them accountable. So if you see a “poll watcher” blatantly shilling for Trump and confronting numerous people and “challenging” peoples right to vote you need to take action.

The first thing to do is to notify the poll workers and also contact the clerk of courts/police department with the information that a partisan political group is intimidating voters at such and such polling place. Continue to monitoring the situation if possible and make sure that this group is handled accordingly because there is always a chance they will slip thru the cracks (or be related to a judge or some nonsense) and just be told to behave while being allowed to stay.

If that’s the case, there is only one remaining option: contact the media and social media. Take pictures of the person/people, record their actions, give your account if they try to challenge your vote, if you witnessed them intimidate other people-talk to those people on cam, take the whole thing to the public at large and most importantly be safe!

Ultimately my point is: tomorrow it is up to ALL OF US to do our part to make sure Trump loses. Because I believe 100% that If things are made fair there is no way Biden loses; it is going to take some serious cheating from Trump and his cronies and the courts, and they are definitely NOT above that. So we have to do what we can to keep them honest, so please if you see any type of voter suppression tomorrow do something about it, don’t stay silent this is too important.

I’ll be checking this topic through out the day tomorrow or perhaps posting a similar one. If anyone of you see anything, please post your account of it and info here-including pics and whatever else you have if you want. Me and several other activists have topics like this all over Twitter, Reddit, etc and we are hoping that we can create a small but effective network (some of us have connections to media/are journalists) to expose any Republican voter suppression tomorrow and stop it.

So please guys, join me in this, no matter if you are on the reddest of red states or on the West coast. We want any and all cases reported so we can expose them and make the point that our civil rights are not to be trifled with; whether it is voting or something else, these rights are rights.

Thank you for your time and let’s get out there tomorrow and save this got’dang country boys and girls!

1. Who's "we"? Citizens, like, ummm.., voters, have absolutely no right to do anything more than...

vote and express some concerns to the poll workers, if even that. Voters vote, then leave and that's pretty much it. Poll watchers may have some more opportunity to voice complaints, but even if something is obviously wrong, nobody can interfere with how the poll workers do their jobs.

After leaving, you can try contacting authorities, but they will likely be busy. Best bet might be to try getting in touch with your local party offices.

Your local party offices should have already laid out some details and procedures. Perhaps the county Board of Elections has put something out.

FWIW, I've been a poll watcher, poll worker, and member of my town and county committees for years and it's tough enough to get through election day, and any of these clowns are easily identified and removed.

3. I'm really only speaking to poll watchers who are "poll watchers"

Of course actual poll watchers are a thing, and there is a process for becoming one and so forth. And of course poll watchers have often times come from a party apparatus and were stationed at polling places where voter fraud was anticipated. However, in the past these groups were mostly respectful and admitted “defeat” as these groups have never been successful in turning up any sort of wide spread fraud.

But this year could be quite different, obviously.

I fear that these groups; instead of being more or less honest and doing their job that they are going to find reasons to challenge peoples rights to vote. Probably on racist, non-citizen grounds in swing states like Nevada and Arizona; and that is really just the tip of the iceberg.

Now my hope is that any group so bold as to do that or Anything like it will be called out and told to leave. But suppose they just move locations or just come back later, or try to intimidate the poll workers into staying: that’s when it’s our job to contact authorities and failing that working; get these people on camera and contact social media and regular media. Let the Public know what’s going on.

Like i said, we all need to do our part tomorrow. If yall see voter suppression don’t stand for it. Make sure you do the right thing, expose it, and stay safe!

2. I read yesterday that his "army oof poll watchers" was more like a small platoon

Kinda like their million man marches they were going to do this past summer against the BLM movement. A smattering of poorly organized trumphumpers having a summer’s day outing
