Gov.Ā Gavin Newsom on Friday accused the Trump administration of ārigging the electionā by dispatching federal poll monitors to five California counties, as voters cast ballots on NewsomāsĀ Proposition 50Ā redistricting measure.
The Department of Justice announced Friday that it would deploy personnel to polling sites in Fresno, Kern, Los Angeles, Orange and Riverside counties to āensure transparency, ballot security, and compliance with federal law,ā ahead of the stateās Nov. 4 special election.
In an interview with KQEDāsĀ Political Breakdown, Newsom said the move was a āsetupā for the Trump administration to cast doubt on the potential victory of Proposition 50 ā a planĀ to redrawĀ the stateās congressional district lines to advantage Democrats.
No, Iām describing sending armed security that outnumber what the feds try to send.
If the feds think they still can instigate shit when outnumbered, they might end up starting a civil war - but the states wouldnāt start it.
Thereās already other stuff like the health compacts in place between some states. Voting safety compacts might also happen
