Pennsylvania Election Paranoia
By Bob Small
Both major parties are planning for major Election Day irregularities.
Before we conclude its not just the Party of Hunter and his father doing this, the following quote “We’ve invested heavily in staff throughout the Commonwealth who have been recruiting and training poll workers and monitors since before the primary election,” is from PA GOP Party Spokesperson James Markley.
However, the DNC has created “Democracy Protectors” which sounds like the new Marvel political franchise. They are drumming up fear of ICE agents or “insurrectionists” or ???!!
Democratic National Committee Chair Vice Chair Jane Kleeb opines that “We know that the threat is real” so that is why “we have an Intelligence Unit”, composed of former government intelligence agents. Hopefully, it’s not a “Stupidity Unit,” but we digress.
Since this is about Pennsylvania, we need to mention the following groups discussed in this article; the Philadelphia-based Committee of Seventy, Common Cause Pennsylvania, Faiths United to Save Democracy, League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania, and Project Halo. Surely one of these groups can bring coffee and donuts for everyone serving in the polling locations.
This article also listed 20- some National groups, which you’ll have to seek on your own.
Yet another group Serve as a Pennsylvania Election Protection Legal Monitor will be there to “ensure every Pennsylvania Voter is able to vote” , despite any attempts at “voter intimidation and suppression”. From either side, of course.
The ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) has been creating “Voter Ambassadors”. They, along with their partners Common Cause who have five major duties, including “flagging misinformation” and various forms of networking.
They also serve who sit and drive tose
who may need “a ride to the polls, dropbox, or election office”, among other places. This group is called “Promote the Vote”.
This Bill confirms that “law enforcement officers are prohibited from being within 100 feet of a polling location on Election Day.”
Hope there’s enough parking at your local polling location.
