Here outside the Maricopa vote counting center. #stopthesqueal crowd is diverse and still going strong
People have brought their kids and there’s people here from Women for Trump, Jews for Trump, Latinos for Trump
Quite a few people here are every day voters who are upset at what they believe to be issues with their ballots (sharpies kept coming up) and want a fair and equal election
A few Trump supporters who just met here were sharing their experiences voting and they believe their ballots were compromised or not properly counted.

Arizona GOP told them to submit an incident report to: [email protected]
This Trump supporter is an Arizona native and when she found out her state was going blue, drove home early from her Vegas vacation because she was convinced there was fraud.

“I don’t believe it,” she says. “There’s no way this state is blue”
She was also told it’s best to be outside the voting center at night because “that’s when the suitcases full of mystery ballots start showing up”

I asked if she’s seen anything suspicious here and she said no
Back at the Maricopa counting center, where Charlie Kirk is set to speak. He’s part of a network of high-profile right-wing figures who jumped in and helped spread the Stop the Steal/Protect the Vote campaign across the country. Mike Cernovich and Alex Jones were here yesterday
No one is wearing masks. In fact, this speaker encouraged everyone to rip them off, calling them a government muzzle
Supporters and speakers here are pissed at the Republican Party, especially Gov. Ducey, and Fox News for not protecting their vote and “throwing them under the bus”
Charlie Kirk furthering the narrative that Republicans are against Trump voters, telling the crowd that they’ve seen what conservatives have done “to get rid of this president,” calling it a coup

He also repeated baseless voter fraud claims about counting in battleground states
Alex Jones is back
Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones continues to encourage Trump supporters not to accept the outcome of the election.
📸 from outside the Maricopa voting center. This demonstration has been going since 9 am and some of the organizers say they plan to park it here until results are announced and even after
Eva Mayo represents a lot of Trump supporters with her distrust of of government and democratic systems. She said this has made her question whether any election “was really fair,” and brought up Romney

When I asked about Trump’s win in 2016 though, she said that was legit
And in this is where we are today: This guy kept interrupting Alex Jones bc he was upset that the conspiracy theorist wouldn’t admit that the earth was flat. Then Jones’ fans got upset bc they couldn’t hear his speech about baseless other fraud theories
Trump supporters here in Maricopa have been heckling the media because they believe they’re hiding ballots in their cars, especially since the license plates are from out of state (bc they’re rentals)

“I’m tired of being nice,” one guy shouts
They’ve also been freaking out over big trucks driving by, like this Enterprise one. This woman says she’s been filming them going by bc she believes, without evidence, that they’re moving ballots.
