Complaints that Trump has merely called for citizen monitors are remarkable.
In a recent speech in Michigan, Donald Trump irked liberals by asking his supporters to monitor and observe the electoral process to make sure its on the up and up. He explained: Youve been reading the same stories as Ive been reading. So go to your [polling] place and vote, and then go pick some other place, and go sit there with your friends and make sure its on the up and up. Because know what? Thats a big, big problem in this country, and nobody wants to talk about it. Nobody has the guts to talk about it.
The reaction by the Left was fast and furious. There is no fraud, they claimed. Whats more, they say, comments like these are racist.
Wrong. In fact, their charges are hypocritical. While Democrats criticize Trump for wanting to bring some sorely needed sunshine to the electoral process, the Democratic party and its allies are planning to insert election protection teams in polling places across the country to purportedly protect voters.

Thus sayeth the Lord.
Amen.
It surely can't get any simpler than that!
I have always thought that the easiest way to vote extra times came in the precincts where Republicans are reluctant to go and thus Democrat election judges sign, completely legal, as Republicans. If there is no one else in the room near the end of the day, what is to prevent a polling judge to just use the electronic card to vote, clear it, vote again, over and over. Nothing. It is just one of many ways.
Trump's call for poll watchers is important. He is not calling for intimidating voters, though the MSM found one loser who made it sound that way. Of course they will feature him prominantly.
Ah, yes. I vaguely remember the sarcastic phrase “re-elect Governor Sauerbray” after she got defeated by fraud.
