GOLDSBORO, N.C. (AP) — The situation with the poll watcher had gotten so bad that Anne Risku, the election director in North Carolina's Wayne County, had to intervene via speakerphone.
“You need to back off!” Risku recalled hollering after the woman wedged herself between a voter and the machine where the voter was trying to cast his ballot at a precinct about 60 miles southeast of Raleigh.
Poll watchers have traditionally been an essential element of electoral transparency, the eyes and ears for the two major political parties who help ensure that the actual mechanics of voting are administered fairly and accurately. But election officials fear that a surge of conspiracy believers are signing up for those positions this year and are being trained by others who have propagated the lie spread by former President Donald Trump and his allies that the 2020 presidential election was riddled with fraud.
In Michigan, groups that have spread falsehoods about that race are recruiting poll watchers. In Nevada, the Republican Party's nominee for secretary of state, Jim Marchant, denies President Joe Biden's 2020 victory and was a featured speaker at a party poll watcher training.

They Left are already setting the stage for confrontations and excuses for kicking out Republican Poll Watchers.
From elections past Poll Watchers for Republicans have been accused of everything from blocking voting booths to ethnic intimidation.
They are now bracing the general public to expect Republicans to disrupt the polls and counts therefore clearing the way to remove observers so the cheating can begin or continue.
This sounds like a headsup that the aho left plans to act up and try to make it back to back stolen elections. Bass turds.
…brace for HONEST poll watchers.
Sounds like they know they are not getting away the crap they pulled in 20. It will get violent if they try to keep us again.
Poll Watchers SHOULD be confrontational! AT EVERY STEP!
If the Demorats attempt to cheat, the more poll disruption the better.
Yes, David. At some point it may get ugly since we have so many eyes on. But we cannot be deterred by their threats and propaganda. We press on.if it comes to blows, we fight back.
PERIOD.
No surrender.
Poll watchers should brace for confrontational election officials.
Yes, HONEST poll watchers who are going to CONFRONT cheaters.
I even make an effort to balance our poll workers between men and women, registered Rs and Ds.
That's a pretty definite statement. I wonder if they are willing to debate it?
Poll watcher: Why are you doing something illegal?
Election official: Leave and do not return. (Escorted out)
And that is how it works now.
Perfect take on the situation.
An obvious symphony of skulduggery is coming our way soon.
Any process that is un-auditable is on it’s face fraudulent. There is not one voting process anywhere in this country that is auditable.
Exactly, totally correct!
“…who have propagated the lie spread by former President Donald Trump and his allies that the 2020 presidential election was riddled with fraud.“
It isnt a lie as long as the evidence remains un looked at.
The 2020 election was stolen, lying sack of 💩 media.
😡
It was looked at in six state legislatures, and ignored by secretaries of state in each, except for Arizona, which had an audit.
Democrats are always the good guys. We are always the bad guys. Every story they do reflects that point of view.
