As election officials across the country brace for the possibility of federal agents descending on polling sites in November, a nationwide coalition of Democratic district attorneys has vowed to prosecute any federal agent suspected of intimidating voters.
The announcement, first reported by Politico, comes shortly after President Donald Trump refused to rule out sending U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to election sites during the midterms. “I’d do anything necessary to make sure we have honest elections,” Trump told reporters earlier this month.
The coalition includes prosecutors from Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Dallas and Northern Virginia, among other jurisdictions.
“We’re ready to go,” Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner told MS NOW’s Chris Jansing on Thursday. “In the same way that my office and the offices of these other members of this group have successfully prosecuted civilians and also prosecuted law enforcement, we will prosecute federal agents who try to interfere with elections.”
“It’s a crime in almost every jurisdiction to engage in election interference under state law,” he added, “and they better get ready for the handcuffs and the jail cell.”
Federal law prohibits voter intimidation and interference at polling sites. Many states also have statutes that criminalize voter intimidation.
The group is part of a nationwide coalition of local prosecutors called the Project for the Fight Against Federal Overreach, formed earlier this year to combat Trump’s executive actions.
“The right to vote without fear of armed government agents at the polls is not negotiable, and it is not subject to the whims of a president,” Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty, another member of the coalition, said in a statement.

RE: He demonstrated himself to be as dumb as f***.
Looks like the New Black Panthers are not sending their best (to quote a great man).
But outside the White House the Left did send their “Best” (Nasire Best).
If non-citizens rarely, if ever, vote, why would immigration agents at a polling place be an issue?
How can people who are not legally entitled to vote suffer “Voter Intimidation” — they aren’t voters?
These questions are raised whenever this type of prosecutorial threats surface, but the DA’s never seem to answer them.
I actually can’t wait to see it… I will love to watch US marshals “pull up” on Democrats.
Well, that is their in-your-face proclamation that there is going to be vote fraud using people who were registered illegally.
The libs are in this weird habit of always asking Trump to “rule out” things he never said were in his plans.
In this way they get their idiotic base to believe Trump actually planned whatever it is that the lib activists fantasized.
Need to have the DOJ announce that any local DAs who try to prosecute federal agents for doing their duty - including showing up at polling places - will themselves be arrested and prosecuted in federal courts.
Remember when those two New Black Panthers stood in front of a Philadelphia with clubs in 2008?
Then the Obama “justice” department ended up dropping all charges?

Maybe I should get a t-shirt saying ICE and wear it to vote. It won’t have a candidate’s name on it.
