Why Would any Citizen be Intimidated by Law Enforcement at a Polling Booth?

The hysteria that was launched by the left and their allies in the media over the potential of law enforcement officials having a presence at polling booths was quite telling as to how far they will go to encourage cheating. It included press statements from New York’s Attorney General Tish James who assured residents she’d fight the presence of law enforcement at polling sites.

Why would any citizen who is eligible to vote be scared of being apprehended by law enforcement who might be present in the vicinity?

There’s no obvious reason why they would be. The only ones who might be intimidated would be those who are here illegally or are not eligible to vote and seek to do so regardless.

We don’t think there are a large number of ineligible people who are showing up at the polling places to vote. If they’re going to try to cheat the system, they would do so through the more remote mail-in process.

But, let’s say there are a few hundred around the country who tried to sneak in and cast their votes even though they’re here illegally. Why shouldn’t we want them dissuaded from doing so?

The only reason that Democrats would fight this effort is because they feel it’s a benefit to their party to not discourage illegal immigrants from casting a ballot. They know in the vast majority of those improperly cast ballots, it will inure to the benefit of the Democratic Party.

So they do everything they can to gum up the works when efforts are undertaken to prevent illegal voting.

They fight against removing dead people from the rolls.

They seek to water down the signature process.

They promote drop boxes and ballot harvesting that remove the chain of custody of the ballot.

They oppose voter ID.

Why would they do so, but for the probability that they actually want cheating to go on, knowing that it will almost always benefit their party.

And in an election that is decided by a handful of votes, it can matter.

The left insists that it is the party of election integrity, and they do not want to see cheating.

However, their actions tell a different tale.
