The legal rigging has been perfected in Russia & Hungary. The voting 'integrity' bills have been modeled on those. It's there in #project2025

Once that 💩 is in place, only a concerted vote boycott with less than 40% of the population #Voting will let the world know it's not a legitimate government

Reuters: Elon Musk is sued over $1 million election giveaway

Probably not gonna toot a lot more now. It’s the after-work rush. And once 7pm hits it’s all #electionofficer work. Surprisingly heavy turn out. Surprising me mainly because I thought a lot of early #voting would reduce the load. But we had dozens of same-day registrations! So they were unexpected voters. Hard to anticipate.

I’ll toot out some final thoughts after 8:30 or 9:00pm EDT
#election2024 #electionday #uspol

I’m reading about long lines on #electionday in other parts of the country. I love early #voting. We had maybe 10 voters waiting at 6:00am who we quickly processed. Since then, it’s been slow and steady.

In 7 hours we’ve done maybe 300 #voters, so a little less than 1 a minute. But that doesn’t mean nobody is voting. They probably voted early or absentee.

I’m a big fan of early voting. It just makes #elections easier. #election2024 #electionday #uspol

I’m in the #CovidIsNotOver crowd and still wearing my N95, especially if I’m going to deal with 1000 total strangers. Rough average in the US is 1 in 60 have an active infection. So if I do see 1000 people today, probably something like 16 will have an active infection. Virginia’s rates currently are pretty moderate. Maybe it’ll be less than 16. But there’s no reason to think there will be zero people with #covid #voting.

Of the 15 officers in my #poll precinct, 2 of us are wearing masks. Few #voters are masking, maybe 5 out of 200. Airflow is good in the room.

We offer free #masks to those who want them. But it’s a bit pointless. Nobody who wants a mask shows up without one.

You might wonder “Paco, are you sharing details about #election #security that you shouldn’t share?” I have a high regard for #Fairfax County #Virginia. They make a lot of their #voting training public. You can see the training that I was given on their YouTube channel. All the details I’m sharing are in that training.

I really think they do it right. I have no complaints about how the County does things. But sometimes I think State law is not great. So we follow the law but that can be annoying sometimes.

From a friend working the polls in Chicago:

"I’ve been the Election Coordinator in a north side precinct for a decade. Almost 20 elections. I have never seen an Election Day turnout anywhere *close* to this. We had a line of 30 people when we opened the polls at 6:00am. That is unprecedented. We’ve had a continuous 2-hour line since then. Also unprecedented.
THIS IS NUTS!! IN THE BEST WAY!!”

Loon Star State: Ken Paxton's Voting Police

Ben Sargent imagines the logical conclusion of the AG's policing priorities.

^{Ben Sargent (The Texas Observer)}

Last year, New Mexico adopted House Bill 4, which establishes that those convicted of a felony can still vote, providing they are not incarcerated. A crew of people set to work registering newly eligible voters and in doing so discovered thousands of people who had been wrongfully denied their voting rights, for many years before. They’ve successfully sued the state so that those affected will be able to vote next Tuesday. It’s a victory, but some voters still feel mistrustful of the government. @bolts explains more.

“A Year of Frustration”: How New Mexico Kept Denying People Voting Rights Despite Reform - Bolts

New Mexico restored rights to thousands last year. But in reaching out to voters, organizers discovered a trail of wrongful denials, some dating back decades, and sued for a fix.
