Wow, that’s a terrifying story.

The Obama regime clearly realized early on that people were not going to vote for him again and started taking “proactive” measures. Even the usual fraud wasn’t going to be enough, so it was important to suppress the voice of conservative groups and make people think there was no opposition or that it was just tiny and nutty. And this woman was a double threat, because she also wanted to do something about the classic Dem voter fraud she had seen while working in the polling place.

The Dems have always been trying to intimidate citizen volunteers and poll workers. I have been a GOP poll watcher in several elections, and I remember particularly the 2004 election, where all of the GOP poll watchers received an individually addressed legal letter from some Dem lawyers group with an ambiguous name. It was supposed to look and sound like it came from a government agency and cited sections of code under which we could be imprisoned for “interfering with” the elections. It was pretty scary, although essentially it was meaningless, and it terrified and confused many of the poll watchers to the extent that they either decided not to show up or, if they did appear, they were too frightened to challenge things that they saw.

Now that this lawless group is actually in power, the gloves are off and all of our agencies have been turned into a giant, crushing machine for keeping them in power.
