From Just the News.com (Apr. 19):
The Republican National Committee (RNC) and former President Donald Trump unveiled a large election integrity project on Friday, that will send more than 100,000 people to watch the polls in swing states this November.
The operation comes after Trump and his allies alleged the 2020 election was stolen through wide-spread voter fraud. The RNC had pledged to send 50,000 poll watchers to the ballot boxes in 2020, according to NBC News.
“Having the right people to count the ballots is just as important as turning out voters on Election Day,” Trump said in a press release. “Republicans are now working together to protect the vote and ensure a big win on November 5th.”
The attorneys and other volunteers will monitor early voting, election day voting, logic and accuracy machine testing, mail ballot processing, and post-election canvasses, recounts, and audits.
“Every ballot. Every precinct. Every processing center. Every county. Every battleground state. We will be there,” RNC chairwoman Lara Trump said in the release. "The RNC is hiring hundreds of election integrity staff across the map – more than ever before because our Party will be recruiting thousands of more observers to protect the vote in 2024. These campaign officials in states are tasked with recruiting, training, and when possible, shifting poll watchers and poll workers day in and day out."
The attorneys will be placed at the processing centers and polling sites in battleground states, and will work with secretaries of state offices, and county boards of elections.
The attorneys and other volunteers will report any irregularities in voting, and can call any questions they have through their designated “Election Integrity Hotline” to a command center where designated lawyers will guide poll watchers through the appropriate processes and “provide clarity on how various issues should be answered, resolved, or escalated.” [source]
Good! Finally. And don't let the poll workers throw you out of the polling sites.
