281. yes, I do
first of all, he some unresolved experiences in February:

it looks like he was looking for a fight then, too

the second statement out of his mouth was "we got a problem?"

then, he was telling these poll works to call the Election board when they are busy people. He could have easily have gone out into the parking lot and called the election board. They are required to respond in a timely manner to resolve disputes.

his third statement started with "Ok, partner" and ended with a threat to call the election board

the poll worker even encouraged him to call the election board by saying "You go right ahead!"

he showed his driver's license and then was surprised (and resentful) that there was no report filed by the election board follow up to his complaint

when he talked to the election board appointee he asked three questions all at once and then, when she wasn't able to satisfy him, he "pressed her on the matter" then he "pressed further", saying ""So, Charlene, if I come in with my precinct issued ID, or a utility bill, or my bank statement, there will no more requests for a Photo ID?" when she said that the poll workers aren't perfect he called it a "CYA" statement (cover your ass). And then she said he should call her (which as you read the rest of the confrontation in the post itself), he did not do.

the first person he met was a spy, and the first thing he said to her was "yep"

when she asked for something with his signature on it, he said, "I don't think so" and then calls her "ma'am"

and then, finally he meets Leroy, whom he also calls by his first name


Leroy was hostile and insisted on the "rules", which as far as anybody knows, is what he was told is right

So, instead of calling Charlene, Galloglas "pressed" them matter, and "pressed" it some more.

He never once had anything nice, or sympathetic, or understanding to say to anyone. He is the perfect victim, which gives him the right to treat anyone anyway he wants. Just like everyone else sitting around at your typical anger management course.


Hey, I've totally been where Galloglas is. If he continues to call the media and go around busting chops and calling people by their first name every second and arguing about how unfair everything is all the time, he's going to encounter some resistance.

He has a right to vote, but the poll workers and everybody else in that room have a right to feel safe. It was 9:45 AM when it started. I'm 99% sure that a poll worker would have to come out, even if it were almost closing time.

I've seen how other people intimidate people who are skeptical of Galloglas the hero on this thread. So it just goes to confirm my opinion that something fishy is going on here, and it doesn't "smell like bacon".
