  1. 18 U.S. Code § 594.Intimidation of voters:
    Whoever intimidates, threatens, coerces, or attempts to intimidate, threaten, or coerce, any other person for the purpose of interfering with the right of such other person to vote or to vote as he may choose, or of causing such other person to vote for, or not to vote for, any candidate for the office of President, Vice President, Presidential elector, Member of the Senate, Member of the House of Representatives, Delegate from the District of Columbia, or Resident Commissioner, at any election held solely or in part for the purpose of electing such candidate, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.

  2. Trump Is Already WINNING In Key Early Voting, Democrats FREAKING OUT Over Numbers In Key Swing State. By every metric Democrats should be dominating in swing states but many metrics have Republicans close or even winning. Democrats are growing very worried about key swing states already flipping Trump even though early voting favors Democrats. With Republicans sealing voter registration numbers Trump is on track to win several key swing states. Joe Biden is in trouble if these numbers remain stable. They aren’t doing well enough to win on election night or even with late mail in votes. Trump 2020. lol

  3. I don’t get it. How would voter intimidation even work? How would this benefit the intimidator? So somebody goes to drop off a ballot, but how would an intimidator know who that person is going to vote for? I doubt people are going to the polls and loudly announcing their ballot choices as they walk to the ballot box.

  4. Funny how folks jump to conclusions. The only protesters I could find out about today, in SM and SB, were a group of women urging people to vote and protesting against the Trump administration, the perceived threat to Roe v Wade and SCOTUS appointment. From the news on KEYT it didn’t appear that they were harassing anyone.

  5. Chelsea’s comment was a verbatim copy/paste from a well-known Trump supporter who has figured out how to monetize Youtube by spewing noise on social media and drawing people to his website and Youtube channel. The more controversy he stirs up the more money he makes.

  6. Our Next Door site has some guy who is spreading false info about not receiving his ballot. I think the Trumpsters are just trying to stir the pot. There were dozens of people in the thread commenting on how the voting process for them had gone very smoothly. I think planting comments like this will be a strategy to rile voters. Please be informed and ignore these trolls.

  7. Harassing voters to block them from depositing their ballot. Or panhandling or protesting in a high traffic public space. Initial report was too vague to tell, but interesting knee-jerk reactions on full display as expected. Thanks for sharing, everyone.

  8. “Perceived” threat? Uhhh, it’s a REAL threat to Roe v. Wade, and we WON’T STAND FOR IT. We will NEVER go back to the dark days before Roe. So sick of having to fight for basic reproductive healthcare. UGhhhhhhh. It’s 2020 and even Ireland, the most religious of Western countries, has legalized abortion, yet here we are in Puritanical hell.

  9. How can anyone be proud of voting for either party in this election. It’s a truly dumb situation we find ourselves in That these are our two options. I can obviously see and understand voting for Biden, but being proud of it? That truly inconceivable to me…

  10. @Pit, I generally agree with most of what you say. And I’m just as frustrated with the extreme right wing community members that live in this town. But, just because I disagree with them doesn’t make them all trolls. A couple, ya probably, but the majority just have different views. With that said, I’m continuously shocked by how right wing a lot of our locals truly are.

  11. A man who has served his country for decades, with sons in the military? Who loves his family and will listen to scientists? If you are not proud of this candidate, even if you disagree with his policies, then there is something wrong with you. Not even Melania is proud of the Donald.
