Pennsylvania Democrats ask judge to bar Trump's polling place observers
The Pennsylvania Democratic Party has sued Donald Trump and an informal adviser to his presidential campaign for their plans to position volunteer observers at polling places on Election Day.
The federal lawsuit, filed Sunday in Philadelphia, accuses Trump's campaign and Roger Stone Jr., a longtime national political adviser, of "conspiring to threaten, intimidate, and thereby prevent minority voters in urban neighborhoods from voting in the 2016 election."
The lawsuit, which loops in the Republican Party of Pennsylvania, is similar to lawsuits filed Sunday by the state Democratic parties in Arizona, Ohio, and Nevada against Trump, Stone, and the state Republican parties there.
Stone, who has been using the Super PAC Stop The Steal, to sign up volunteers, said in an emailed statement that he is "honored but the lawsuit is without merit."
