While announcing that over a third of polling locations in Maricopa County, AZ will be closed, the Election Day Director says "I'm sorry, I can't do this." and walks off the podium.pic.twitter.com/9IDtgu1L4z
To all the people who think this man just had nerves: Here’s the same official much earlier very much not nervous. BTW Maricopa County is the largest county so as it, as goes the state. It’s also full of POC. Noted.https://youtu.be/SPXSET90k_c
Maricopa was one of the worst voter suppression cases in the 2016 primary from a dramatic shortage of polling locations (as well as mysterious party designations and purges) in 2016. Are they reducing the polling stations EVEN MORE this year??
Disgusting Helen Purcell blaming voters for the long lines because "Too many are voting." smfhhttps://twitter.com/TammyKosiancic/status/712845744265277442?s=20 …
He was jittery the entire time, like he was trying to remember what he had to say. I guess his conscience kicked in.
Exactly. He knows it will accelerate the spread of Covid19, leading to AZ hospitals getting overwhelmed & having to triage care, resulting in MANY unnecessary deaths, mostly seniors & medically fragile ppl. You can hear the waver in his voice; he knows ppl will die as a result.
His reaction at the end should be taken more serious, it shows relief in his face when he told them he cant do this, like he was pressured
The most confident thing he said was “I can’t do this”.
Although I hope it's because he can't in good conscience disenfranchise voters, it could just be that he has a public speaking phobia.
Might be he realizes introducing this genius plan to funnel more people into fewer polling locations during a disease outbreak makes him party to the increased deaths it's gonna cause.
So the less polling places the more infected people congregate and spread the disease. Great thinking.
Exactly. It's funneling infected people into even more heavily populated points.
