Trump Camp And NV GOP Ordered To Appear In Court In Voter Intimidation Lawsuit
This Election is RIGGED, I tell you!! It's RIGGED!!!
I am working my ass off to beat this batard!!
Phone banking and knocking on doors every day!!
The Nevada Democratic Party's lawsuit was filed along with lawsuits from three other Democratic state parties against their GOP counterparts and the Trump campaign in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Arizona. They allege that the Trump campaign and the state Republican parties have violated the Voting Rights Act and the Ku Klux Klan Act, with an approach to elections monitoring that Democrats described as "vigilante voter intimidation." Roger Stone, the longtime GOP operative and former Trump adviser, was also named in the complaints, as was the group he is affiliated with, Stop the Steal, for its poll watcher recruitment efforts.
In Ohio, the judge ordered the defendants to respond to the Democrats' complaints by Wednesday evening and provide any objections they may have to the judge placing an order limiting voter intimidation and the presence of unauthorized poll observers at election sites.
The judge presiding over the Arizona case issued a briefing schedule requesting responses to the Democratic complaints by 5 p.m. Wednesday, with an option for the Democrats to counter-respond by noon Thursday.
