I literally stood over a table in Detroit observing the ballot count side-by-side with a republican observer who, along with more than a hundred other republican observers, challenged every ballot counted for no reason for 16 hours straight. As u already know, this is just lies. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1326679385966047236
by late in the afternoon there were so many observers credentialed to be in the room that they stopped letting in ALL new observers, regardless of your party because the room was at capacity and republicans had started getting extremely aggressive with ballot counters and staff.
anecdotally, i left around 1am when they had finished counting and were starting the "closing" process, and when I asked the republican observer at my table if she was going to leave, she told me she'd stay until the morning. and she did, with dozens of republicans and democrats.
To be sure, here’s the Facebook profile picture of the woman who observed ballot counting alongside me all day and night inside Detroit’s TCF center last week. I’ll let you decide what team she’s on.
and for anyone who's interested, here's my IG story from observing Nov 4th absentee ballot counting in Detroit. I downloaded it the next morning so I could look back it and remember my experience if the President decided to fill the internet with lies.
