Such a jerk move to make this ask today on election day and not earlier, and double-jerk that the Trump campaign's real goal is to get the data and start challenging votes based on iffy information out of procedure.

If this is anywhere close, the Trump campaign is going to try and fuck this Nevada chicken to death.

Judge just told Trump campaign lawyer to sit the fuck down

How are things looking in Pennsylvania and Michigan?

I heard/read some worrying things about PA early this morning that Trump was ahead or something like that? Is that still a thing?

Only concerns would've been if the transit strike was still on. With that settled, state'll go blue easily.

Yeah, sweating high turnout in rural Nevada is just super bedwetting. You are talking about hundreds of people in some places. Clark County will swamp everything.

What the fuck are they doing in Arizona? They can't find their voters in the system?

n Maryvale, Miguel Ángel López, 67, arrived at the Church of the Nazarene at 6 a.m. and waited in line for two hours.

With his U.S. passport, Arizona driver's license and Maricopa County voter identification card at hand, Lopez was turned away from voting twice because poll workers told him he was at the wrong polling place.

“They said I wasn't in the system, and to go to a church on Thomas (Road),” said López in Spanish to La Voz and azcentral reporter Laura Gomez-Rodriguez.

While waiting for his son in the parking lot of the Church of the Nazarene to pick him up, López said in Spanish he felt “a bit broken” by the experience.

“I feel a heartache, I feel like crying,” said López, who is from Guatemala and speaks very little English.


Abril Gallardo, 26, a poll observer with the Maricopa County Democratic Party, assisted López outside the polling site and confirmed he was at the right polling location.

Gallardo walked in with López to help translate, and help him understand why he was turned away. López was told again that he was not at the right polling location, and if he wanted to vote with a provisional ballot he had to get back in line.

“He wanted to cry, and I think he was scared. It's ugly that they did that to him,” said Gallardo.

Robert Dott, a certified poll observer with the Maricopa County Democratic Party, said the main problem at the location is that the machines used to check in voters were slow.

“It takes a long time to get a ballot,” said Dott. “And some people are not showing up in the system.”

I swear I've seen the Roar ad at least a dozen times today. So glad they are pushing the positive message. I think it's the right move to get people to go out and vote.

Wow, is that how shitty their lawyer was? He was trying to get private voter information when that's something that they don't fucking do.

Argument is both so incoherent and transparent that the judge is incredulous about what is being asked. She is being VERY kind to Trump's lawyer.

Am I imagining things or have voting booths become less and less private over the last 15 years or so?

I thought there used to be a curtain and a fairly sized booth, now it's a tiny piece of cardboard.
