Well neither his website nor the article really were specific about what these people are going to be doing. I know in Indiana it is a fairly common practice to have campaign staff in polling locations to see who votes so they can call supporters who have not shown up. Also is it not normal in other states to have campaign workers outside polling stations with literature and signs etc.? I would assume these people would be doing one of these things or the other. Am I missing something?
In the states out west that I'm familiar with, it's illegal to have anyone campaigning in any way, shape, or form, within a pretty big distance of a polling place.
And observers are usually present for vote counting, and they're usually local party people. The only way Trump would need to recruit more if those is if his campaign is seriously worried that the entire membership of local party branches will stay home. (In which case he'd be screwed anyway.)
At best, this is cover for his "I'm the real President" post-election marketing gig. (He'll sue for sure. Maybe hoping for an out-of-court
bribe settlement from President Clinton, direct from the US Mint?)
At worst, he's planning on a "yuge" voter intimidation effort.
Either way, he's terrible and anyone supporting him should be ashamed of themselves.
