With seven weeks until Election Day, officials are preparing for seized ballots, ICE agents at the polls and a postal system that could reject ballots by the batch.
The activists staking out the ballot drop boxes in suburban Phoenix wore body armor and face coverings. With guns at their sides, they recorded residents as they deposited their votes during the last midterm elections.
Voting-rights groups sued, and a federal judge put a stop to them, ruling they had to stay at least 250 feet away while armed to ensure voters were not intimidated.
Four years later and 100 miles to the south, Pima County Attorney Laura Conover is treating the 2022 incident as a lesson on the importance of moving quickly this fall if anyone — including Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents — tries to interfere with the election’s administration.

[ICE agents at the polls
Why would election officials fear that?]
Yeah. What’s to fear?
Legal American Citizens
Legally Voting.
Why, there’s absolutely NOTHING to fear at ALL.
Secure, Safe Voting.
The author doesn’t comprehend that it’s the drop boxes and fake ballots which are the threat to free and fair elections, or what is commonly improperly referred to as “democracy” by the corporate media.
He comprehends, his a TRAITOR.

Any mention of all the photos taken of mass ballot dumps in Phoenix in past elections?
I have a couple saved, including one where some clown had obscured his license plate.
