GOP Caught Red-Handed Engaging In Prohibited Poll Watching

It certainly looks like the Republican National Committee (RNC) has been caught red-handed engaging in poll-watching that has been prohibited by a 34 year old court order. That prohibition is set to expire in 2017 but Democrats are seeking to extend it another eight years based a new evidence that the RNC is currently violating the order. The reason for the original order was the illegal suppression of voters in the state of New Jersey by none other than Roger Stone who just happens to be a close adviser to the Donald Trump campaign these days.

Democrats have produced affidavits from individuals who have encountered at least four individuals involved in poll-watching in Nevada who admitted that they were working for the RNC but were told to lie about that fact.

Meanwhile, a federal judge has ordered the RNC to produce any plans or agreements it has with the Trump campaign to monitor the polls in the upcoming election. Trump, Pence, and KellyAnn Conway have all made public statements that the Trump campaign is coordinating with the RNC to monitor the polls to insure ballot integrity.

Just another example of the institutional Republican party that continues to defy the courts and subvert our democracy.
