PSA if you run into trouble while voting on election day

call

1-866-OUR VOTE

It will redirect you to a local center with volunteers, or call your registrar of voters... or both.

1. As well intended as this bipartisan group may be, find the Dem or OFA poll watcher. They will help

you to vote, if that is at all possible.

2. So lawyers who specialize in this

are no good.

I prefer a non partisan group to do this actually, than partisan groups.

4. A Dem poll watcher will be on-site, and will call in and get help if help is indeed needed.

In many precincts, OFA and the local Democrats will also have a lawyer or trained legal observer at the polling station or close by.

This will be the fifth election cycle that I will be doing this for the Democratic Party. I even help people who aren't Democrats to vote - it's a civic duty. Many of the others who do this feel the same way.

5. They can't be everywhere

we are actually working this story locally, and OFA will be nowhere to be seen.

3. our DEM poll watchers have a direct line to local attorneys provided by the Party for shenanigns

and they will be local on early voting days and election day.

I'm a poll watcher and we just had training this weekend. I'll be curious to see how fast they can get to each poll if something should arise.

The Dems will be sending a ton of lawyers here to Florida just in case they try to steal it again.
