Since government wants Flock and citizens want the SAVE Act the very same argument

can be used to make the midterms much more secure.

At every site used for collection of votes or voting, the FBI, US Marshalls, National Guard, Border Patrol, or Ice Agents shall be posted. They will be specifically trained to look for those, most who shall be identified by the Flock cameras the government has everywhere, who should not be voting or managing another person's vote!!

After all, as they say regarding the Flock cameras, if you are not a criminal or have nothing to hide, why should providing federal security personnel for a federal election bother you?

Flock are privately owned against the voters I believe, trust in elections is not on the same level

I've been saying that we need remote cameras to watch and maintain integrity on the counters.
If you take the job, you take it knowing you will be under surveillance. In that aspect, similar to taking a cash register job at a bank, or like working at a casino.

Exactly right. People should be dealt with extremely harshly for causing illegal voting. It is the only way this country survives making sure elections are extremely secure and accurate.

So here is the counter side to the "no expectation of privacy in public" crowd.
quote:

every site used for collection of votes or voting, the FBI, US Marshalls, National Guard, Border Patrol, or Ice Agents shall be posted.

No expectation of not seeing a dozen black vans parked a block away from the polling office.
Thinking on that... Wouldn't it be easier to move the polling locations to within a block of police stations? And have response teams on standby? Then there isn't the argument over voter intimidation.
It would make holding a lot easier too.

This isn't a terrible idea. Almost every business in the country has video recording public access areas at all times. Why shouldn't polling places have the same? At a minimum, if a discrepancy was suspected, you could at least count the number of people who came in and voted.

Many ways to skin a cat and many ways to secure voting. Also, it seems the demographics of so many of the counters have changed drastically over the years.

How many counters are GOP, democrats, independents, or, or, or, or COMMUNISTS??

Mostly because it's likely against the law.

Need secure elections, but also need people to be secure when voting.

Voter ID works just fine in Florida. Too bad the Save Act doesn't require it.

I can tell you with 100% certainty that every counter I’ve ever seen in Baton Rouge is a Democrat - don’t ask me how I know

How do the demographics break down in Baton Rouge?

Are you asking white/black or rep/dem? My point was that I live in a very nice neighborhood and most everyone is Republican, but the counters at our ballot location are always all Democrats. It’s sort of funny because you can tell they hate the people coming in to vote

Shouldn't a voting precinct be managed by one's peers?

A prominent communist named Joseph Stalin who helped FDR defeat Hitler proclaimed it is not who votes but who counts the votes.

FDR loved Stalin. Go figger.

That’s exactly my point. Every polling location I’ve ever been to has nothing but Democrats working it, even though the area is overwhelmingly Republican. Even if you consider this by voting district, the city I used to live was almost all Republican, yet nothing but Democrats working the booths

It’s the lack of controls over Mail-In ballots which is the HUGE problem.

I'm already over the flock talk.


Its old technology and your HOA probably had them installed in your neighborhood and you never thought twice about it until now.

My neighborhood is a farm of several sections. Nearest cell tower is nowhere to be seen.

Are you trying to say that every polling location you've ever been to has nothing but blacks working it? If that's what you mean, then come out and say it. Plain talk is easy understood.
