Earlier today, Twitchy posted a video of a Democratic committeewoman in Philadelphia wearing a Biden mask allegedly not letting certified Republican poll watchers into a polling place.
For some reason, Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, who tweeted yesterday that “if all the votes are added up in PA, Trump is going to lose,” posted on Election Day about how not just anyone can be a poll watcher.
Not just anyone can be a poll watcher. My office will not stand for voter intimidation.
Know what’s allowed, and what’s not. If you see voter intimidation at your polling location, call the Department of State’s Bureau of Elections at 1-877-868-3772. https://t.co/L8Chn3PCpn

What if the intimidation is of a poll-watcher? Here’s another video from Philadelphia allegedly showing people denying entrance to a polling place to a certified poll watcher, claiming it’s not his ward.

Here’s the poll watcher’s certificate
It makes clear that it allows the holder to watch at any polling place in the city pic.twitter.com/0lRgIFekKg

How do we call ourselves a first world country when this is allowed to happen?

They said very clearly he is AT THE WRONG LOCATION.

IT. IS. A. CITY. WIDE. CERTIFICATE. Valid at ANY location within the city limits. They have zero justification for denying him access, unless they've been given orders to interfere with the Trump campaign.

Everyone keep a close eye on Pennsylvania, and especially Philadelphia.
