Sure, they can back down.
The federal police agencies like the U.S. Marshals can be told to stand down. So can ICE.
Trump can say, “Well, the people voted to let illegals stay, so I guess that’s what I have to do. Sorry if innocent people get hurt, but they need to bring their concerns before their mayor now.”
I served as a poll watcher today and noticed something that struck me as rather odd.
Throughout the evening, I carefully kept a handwritten tally of every voter who cast a ballot.
Each time I compared my count with the total displayed on the voting machine, the machine consistently showed one or two more votes than I had recorded.
To eliminate the possibility of an error in my counting, I repeatedly reset my handwritten tally to match the machine’s displayed total and began counting again from that point forward.
Yet, at the next comparison, the machine was once again ahead by one or two votes.
This happened repeatedly throughout the evening.
I’m not suggesting I know the reason for the discrepancies, but the consistency certainly caught my attention. I would be interested in understanding why the machine totals repeatedly differed from my firsthand count of voters.
