Re: Trump Derangement Syndrome While Voting Today
Today I went to vote in my local elections and the man in charge of setting my voting machine and making it ready for my vote was going off in a heated debate with other people in the voting area about how Trump is not his president...he can't wait until Trump is in jail...etc etc etc.

I stared the guy down and wanted to say something so bad, but then it occurred to me, are the people that work allowed to make political statements like that? Like is that considered free speech?

The fact that I don't know the answer to that is why I stayed silent, but I can't seem to find any info online about it. I'm thinking about making a complaint, but maybe the guy didn't do anything wrong??? Anyone know?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75087356


there are laws about electioneering within a certain distance of the polling location. But Trump is not running in this election today. Probably technically legal because he isn't running for office today but definitely would not be next year. If he was also saying anything about republicans in general then definitely wrong.

Ugh...yeah see this is why I see this as kind of a gray area.

I'll find out what the election board says when they email me back. I specifically asked that they follow up on this so I know what to do if this ever happens again.

I still flat-out believe whether or not this was illegal, it was definitely unprofessional.

I don’t think any campaigning of any kind is allowed at the polls.
You aren’t even supposed to have signs within 150ft of polling stations where I live.

That guy was effectively campaigning- he’s supposed to be neutral while working.

Huh I didn't even think of that.

But here I go again with not knowing enough about like the inner workings of elections.

Is it legal to whip out your cell phone and start recording while voting? You know, kind of like how video isn't allowed in courtrooms and whatnot?

It's supposed to be illegal in my state, but in the inner city "gibs me dat" :african: precincts they pretty much do and get away with whatever they want. Every election there are voting irregularities and more votes are usually cast than registered voters in those :african: precincts. Are you in one of those?

2. Half of the population is subsidized - yet they think they are victims.

3. They think they are victims - yet their representatives run the government.

4. Their representatives run the government - yet the poor keep getting poorer.

5. The poor keep getting poorer - yet they have things
that people in other countries only dream about.

6. They have things that people in other countries only dream about - yet they want America to be more like those other countries.

Re: Trump Derangement Syndrome While Voting Today
My husband worked the republican information table at the voting location in our town. He was ridiculed multiple times by Democrat crazies. One was complaining and pointing at my husband and talking about how many deranged sick republicans she would have to be in the company of to vote in the primaries. My husband refused to engage in any of these remarks by multiple people and it only seemed to make them angrier.

I'm seriously trying to decide what to do to assure safety for republicans at my town's voting location for the primaries and how to go about this.

Luckily the people inside were good about being kind regardless of your affiliation. When they put my ticket in the counter, he tried to get me to hide it in a folder, so he couldn't see how I voted, while he instructed me what to do...LOL. I told him I was not afraid for him to see that I voted straight republican. Too funny. He was really kind so I can only assume he was a fellow Trump fan.

I'm really concerned about how things will turn out during the primaries and then the presidential election all across our country.

I'm hearing it all the time. My cousin from up north said shes moving to Canada if he gets re-elected. No tangible argument why that would be a bad thing..just pure emotion and triggeredness.
 Quoting: diverdan01


This is the strangeness I run into with those who claim that they can't stand Trump. When I ask them why, every one of them literally parrot the same lines verbatim that they hear on television: "He's a racist, a rapist, must be impeached, traitor, blah, blah blah." When I ask them what proof they've seen of him being any one of those things, they again repeat what they have been told by Maddow and her ilk, "He's just, just, well, he's just racist because, uh, he wants to build a wall, and that's racist." I've gotten to the point where it's not even worth trying to have the discussion with them anymore due to their inability to reason or form an independent thought of their own. As long as the media remains in control of repeatedly programming the false narratives into the minds of mouth-breathers and die-hard Communist sympathizers, I dare say that it may just be too late now for this country. I used to think all of the Zombie Apocalypse films and predictions were merely the work of fiction, but now I'm not so sure anymore.

Kamala Harris is not a Natural Born Citizen. She's illegally running.

Used by the Founders...
Book I of The Law of Nations, Chapter XIX, § 212 (Joseph Chitty numbering) – “Citizens and natives”
reads: 'The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to
its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in
the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by
the children of the citizens
, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all
their rights.' 1758 Emerich de Vattel

2. Term Limits for Federal politicians and judges.

are a certain amount of feet away from the voting area. Though, if the state is a blue state, it will probably be ignored if you turned him in.
