White nationalists plan Election Day "show of force" for Trump Empty White nationalists plan Election Day "show of force" for Trump

Neo-Nazi leader Andrew Anglin plans to muster thousands of poll watchers across all 50 states. His partners at the alt-right website “the Right Stuff” are touting plans to set up hidden cameras at polling places in Philadelphia and hand out liquor and marijuana in the city’s “ghetto” on Election Day to induce residents to stay home. The National Socialist Movement, various factions of the Ku Klux Klan and the white nationalist American Freedom Party all are deploying members to watch polls, either “informally” or, they say, through the Trump campaign.

The Oath Keepers, a group of former law enforcement and military members that often shows up in public heavily armed, is advising members to go undercover and conduct “intelligence-gathering” at polling places, and Donald Trump ally Roger Stone is organizing his own exit polling, aiming to monitor thousands of precincts across the country.

Energized by Trump’s candidacy and alarmed by his warnings of a “rigged election,” white nationalist, alt-right and militia movement groups are planning to come out in full force on Tuesday, creating the potential for conflict at the close of an already turbulent campaign season.

“The possibility of violence on or around Election Day is very real,” said Mark Potok of the Southern Poverty Law Center. “Donald Trump has been telling his supporters for weeks and weeks and weeks now that they are about to have the election stolen from them by evil forces on behalf of the elites.”

It is difficult to know at what scale these plans will materialize, because Anglin and his fringe-right ilk are serial exaggerators, according to Potok. And rather than successfully uncover widespread voter fraud — for which there is a lack of compelling evidence — or successfully suppress minority turnout, Potok said the efforts are most likely to backfire.

I don't think it's legal to try to influence election results in such a blatant way. Wouldn't be allowed over here.

One MP was jailed just for telling lies about his political rival, on the basis that lies can influence a vote unfairly.

Now, that's what I call strict.

I read that some schools that have hosted the election voting booths have decided that due to fear of violence they have decided to close the schools on election day.

Election day and later the inauguration of the elected President has always been something to look forwatd to but maybe not this time.

I was lucky enough to have been in Washington on business just a couple of days after Obama's inauguration in 2009 and the joint was jumping with excitement. It may not be the same this time around after all that has happend leading up to it on this occasion.

Idea

IF THE American constitutional "lawmakers" had any brains, they would have changed the polling day to a Saturday well before now...

And made voting compulsory..  At least for your Federal and Presidential elections.         tongue

There's a thin line between influencing an election and First Amendment protections. The way to answer them is to make them lose.

They are southerners. They've always been there, just waiting for the right man and the right opportunities.

I would like a separate country...then I would approve Trump's wall, along that border. Rolling Eyes
