Hillary campaigns at early voting location — in violation of NC law?

Hillary Clinton campaigned at an early voting location on Sunday in Raleigh, North Carolina, in a potential violation of electioneering laws.

Clinton was “mobbed” at the early voting location at Chavis Community Center, Reuters reporter Luciana Lopez tweeted today.

North Carolina AIDS Action Network Executive Director Lee Storrow posted a photo, noting Clinton was “hanging at the polling site.”

Her appearance is potentially a violation of state and local election laws.

According to polling location regulations implemented by Wake County — the governmental unit that oversees electioneering laws:

N.C.G.S. §163-166.4(a) states, “No person or group of persons shall hinder access, harass others, distribute campaign literature, place political advertising, solicit votes, or otherwise engage in election-related activity in the voting place or in a buffer zone…”

The buffer zone will be 50 feet from the entrance to the polling place except where deemed by the Wake County Board of Elections to be necessarily closer, but no less than 25 feet from the entrance to the polling place. There will be publication of information regarding the entrance location and distance of the buffer zone no later than 30 days before the election.

It’s not clear whether Clinton was ever closer than 50 feet from the entrance to the location, but it is clear her intent was to influence voters outside the location.

In March, Bill Clinton ended up in hot water after he appeared outside a polling location during the primary to rally voters for Hillary.

A Massachusetts voter was fuming after she said her polling location was shut down to accommodate a visit by the former president.

Angela Grace posted cell phone video showing orange barrels and yellow police line tape at what she said was a New Bedford voting location.

Bill Clinton appearance locking a voting poll!!!

“I haven’t seen one person be able to come in and be able to vote in here. Everything is blocked off. No person can park here.

“They are affecting the voting at this poll. It’s ridiculous. It’s fraud and illegal,” she declared while panning the camera across the scene showing the media and police milling about while dozens of observers are cordoned off.

“From one side of the street to the other, there’s no way anybody can get down here to vote.”

She laid the blame at the feet of the New Bedford mayor, Jon F. Mitchell.

“Mayor of New Bedford, MA campaigning for Hillary and blocking this voting poll!!! No one has come here to vote in the 2 hours I’ve been here by the door!!” she wrote in the video description.

She has no fear of the law. The highest leos in the nation are in cahoots with her.

There are no laws the Clintons respect, and no laws they won’t violate. They are above the law, they know it, we know, and just about everyone else knows it. The question is, how many care enough to vote to keep her away from the White House?

Her only fear at the moment is Donald J. Trump and the people who will vote for him.

I thought that it was illegal to campaign in churches too, but I guess that’s just if Republicans do it.

Sunday. The ho was out breaking the law and the DOJ public servants were taking Sunday off. Figures. There’s no law in this country anymore. The communists are doing anything that they want to do.

Violating laws is what the Clintons do. It’s just in their DNA.

Electioneering is illegal in all 50 states, D.C., and.U.S. possessions...unless your name is Clinton, and the you get a pass.

Since they quoted the relevant statute in the article, why is the headline posed as a question?

No offense, lady -- but the world would be a better place if every polling place in Massachusetts was closed for eternity.

Am really hoping “sweet meteor of death” is actually the video of DIRT-X-POTUS42 committing statutory rape of the 13 y/o on Pedophile Island.

Her campaign will be fined $25.

On appeal, it will be determined that she didn't intend to violate the law so the fine will be waived.
