At the point that the Rat pushes the camera, would that constitute assault and actionable?
DEpends upon VA law...And I am surprised that since this is caught on video, that the DA has not weighed in on this...
Assault by contact, in Texas law, I believe is a serious misdemeanor...Kinda like shoving that does not produce any real injury, but still is considered unwelcome contact...
If this happened in a poll I was the presiding judge in, I would not care what your political affiliation is...I will have you arrested and charged, with disruption of a polling location at the very least...
That’s why in Texas poll watchers are certainly welcome to observe, but their contact with election staff and voters is limited if not outright illegal...The only person they can actually talk to is the presiding judge at that polling location...
I will study this video a few more times to see if I missed anything else...
