Read the article. These aren’t dispassionate citizens doing their civic duty, these are folks going in with a preset agenda to sow chaos.

What’s wrong with preventing election fraud? If anything, wouldn’t having Conservative Christians be part of the count not reassure people that fraud isn’t taking place? Or am I too British to understand
There has been no election fraud proven in the last election and no reason to think there will be any in this election, at least not from the Democrats. The right has endlessly claimed that Trump lost in 2020 because of fraud and despite filing more than 60 cases alleging fraud, they were not able to provide any evidence. Every single case one of those cases was lost or tossed out by the judge.
If election fraud were an issue, stopping it would be a good thing, but it isn’t an issue. This is a conservative boogieman used to scare foolish people into breaking the law and committing election fraud to help Trump win.
Wouldn’t having trumpy people watching it not increase their confidence in the result?
Wouldn’t foxes guarding the henhouse make the henhouse more foxproof?
Isn’t the allegation though that the dems are doing the interference?
If they were going in with an open mind, there’s no problem. Actual voter fraud is an amazingly rare occurrence and gets found out immediately 99.999% of the time already. But these folks are coming in with their minds made up that large scale fraud is occurring all over the place and what you end up with is voter intimidation and disenfranchisement of voters.
This is actually by design with these folks. They want to scare off minorities, legal immigrants, and folks who are transgendered, etc.
I suspect you are too British to understand why we are so fucked over here. My British friend and my Canadian friends have much the same problem.
Team Pepe (Trump’s team) are on a holy mission to beat the Devil out of US politics. To be clear, the Devil is the Democratic Party. This is not hyperbole. One of the largest factions behind Trump is the QAnon faction, that literally believes Democrats are baby-eating, baby-fucking Satan worshippers that meet in the basement of a pizza parlour that has no basement and plan the Satanic takeover of all of society.
In pursuit of this ‘existential battle of Good vs. Evil’, complete with capital letters, anything is permissible. It’s a holy war to them, and we’re the satanic hoards coming to take their way of life from them. They aren’t here to prevent possible election fraud. They are absolutely sure that there is election fraud because we are the Devil, and the Devil cheats. They’re here to make sure none of us votes because none of our votes are legitimate in their eyes. They don’t care that we’re legally entitled to vote. If we win on Election Day, it’s because the Devil cheated, not because more people said they want us than Team Pepe.
I hope this clears things up for you.
Tbf I have seen leftists on here talk about worshipping Satan and how great they think Satan is
