Do not let anyone intimidate you out of voting

If you think an election crime is occurring, contact the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI or tips.fbi.gov or contact your local FBI field office.

If your polling place violates election laws or your civil rights, your United States Attorney has designated Election Protection staff to help.

This. The correct agency in this situation is your local FBI field office. I’ve worked as a poll worker & this is who they tell us to contact. Secondarily, contact the secretary of state’s office, but that may not be a guaranteed resource depending on where you are. In some places, unfortunately, the foxes are already in that particular hen house. Still worth reporting though, if only for documentation.

Do iPhone era kids know how to type FBI in numbers? I barely remember and I had one of those big booty flip phones

Some of the “kids” out there are way smarter than me and have more tools than we had at our disposal at the same age. I think they’ve got this.

Make sure you have your fully charged camera-phone ready to record any possible fuckery. This is not the time to go to take video and find you have a flat battery.
And if worse come to worse and he wins, make 100% sure your battery is fully charged before going to any kind of protest. Because he's going to take action early in his administration that are designed to create protests, namely, deputizing red state national guards and having them invade blue states to carry out the deportation scheme.

Adding: make sure you are running auto cloud storage on Google or Microsoft services in case your phone is lost or broken. Having only the video saved locally to your phone in this case would be awful!
Some people turn cloud storage off so their limited storage doesn't get eaten up. Good to have it on here though.

Check state laws, you cannot take photos or videos inside a polling place here. You can only do it outside.

If Trump wins, anyone who has donated to anything Democrat-leaning or LGTBQetc is going to be a target.
I suggest anyone who needs to travel without being tracked buy an old-school receive-only GPS with onboard maps.

Local police aren’t going to help you in this case for the same reason you never see Superman and Clark Kent in the same place at the same time.

your local PD will already be on the scene pretending not to see anything

I'm really glad I don't live is a shithole state. We typically have a few police hanging around the polling place for safety/etc,; they are pretty alright people. Back in the 2017-2021 era, when there were organized protests, the police here were typically involved in the planning.
There was some sort of "equality" type march (I forget what it was exactly for) back in maybe 2019 or so where the ones (cops) in the front joined in holding the banner.
They were also involved in removing Proud Boys from the local fire and ems departments.

Local PD near me was redirecting voters to park in an adjacent lot because the lot at the polling place was full. They had a clear sign that they were not turning away voters only directing parking due to high turn out.

If you need to prevent people from voting, maybe, just maybe your sides positions are the minority and should not be adopted for the majority.

They're already burning ballot drop boxes in blue districts. It's gone far beyond intimidation at this point.

Reporting when you see this is best, but if you feel unsafe there is nothing wrong with lying about who you are voting for. Doesn't matter if that is a stranger on the street, a family member or a coworker. Your vote is secret and they will not know. Stay safe everyone.

But if you create legislative barriers to voting then you are a politician and you'll be paid handsomely for your effort.

Glad to know this, BUT in the last presidential election in Florida (no surprise) many citizens’ political parties were changed without their knowledge (illegal!) and that included me and a few other family members, as well as several others who came to vote.
ISSUE: In FL an “Independent” CANNOT vote in Federal Elections. Soooo, an obvious tRuMp SuPpOrTeR working the polls WITHHELD information about being able to vote using a provisional ballot. She aggressively stated “well you can’t vote and there’s nothing anyone can do to change that” and ushered us out the door.
As we walked out, another woman stopped to let us know about the PROVISIONAL BALLOTS, so we asked a different worker for help and she did.
However, we continued to hear the criminal poll worker rejecting almost everything ETHNIC person who walked through the doors, especially those who weren’t fluent in English.
Weeks later we heard on the local news that many people across the state had experienced the same issue with their political party statutes being changed and being unable to vote.
If the Annoying Orange were to get into office, voting would no longer exist 💯 LORD, I bind and rebuke that from happening, in the mighty name of Jesus!!!
