🚨BREAKING: Voting rights groups are citing recent ICE activity near voting sites and new evidence of intimidation as they expand a lawsuit seeking to keep armed federal agents away from polling places during the midterm elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

democracydocket.com

ICE is already showing up near voting sites, bolstering lawsuit against armed agents at polls

Among the newest examples is an ICE detention that took place in the same area California voters had to pass through to reach a ballot drop box.

Ossoff: "on Marco Rubio's watch the world is on fire, we are hemorrhaging our munitions stockpile, the administration appears to be trying to coverup combat casualties ... and he's trying to soft launch his presidential campaign. These people are not focused."

Tonight Troy Jackson spoke of Johan Sebastian Duran Guerrero as a man who was murdered on the streets of Biddeford while going to work. Then Susan Collins painted a dark picture of immigrants saying ICE needs more training. She makes the case for ICE like she made the case for Kavanaugh.

Q: "Why should voters see this as your own campaign and not something that you inherited?" Troy Jackson: "Well, it isn't my own campaign. It's the people across Maine... It's not about Troy Jackson or Graham Platner. What it is about is Donald Trump and Susan Collins making life so much harder."
