The nation witnessed what happened. With the Trump family leading the way, the Republican National Committee is taking steps to make sure it doesn’t happen again. Lara Trump is building an army of 100,000 poll watchers and training 500 lawyers in time for the 2024 election. She spoke with Charlie Kirk, founder and president of the conservative student network Turning Point USA about the reason why.
An army is needed
Lara Trump announced, “They have done everything in their power to take this man down. He will save this country and give it back to we the people.”
She tweeted out, “I believe if we have a free fair and transparent election, there is no question that when the votes are counted, we’re going to bed early on November 5th. We’re gonna wrap this up so that everybody gets a good night’s sleep and we’ll go to bed knowing that Donald Trump is our next president. But what we need to ensure is integrity in our electoral process.”
Kirk addressed the elephant in the room, the reason for the army. “I don’t know if you guys know this, but you here are at a crime scene.”
A nationwide army
At the People’s Convention in Detroit’s Huntington Place Convention Center, chaos erupted on election night 2020. The Detroit Free Press described the scene.
“Early in the day some challengers tried to take pictures or videotape the counting process, which resulted in ballot counters feeling intimidated. They asked security to address the issue, and paper was placed over the windows — causing challengers to bang on the glass even harder.”
If the election isn’t witnessed by both parties, there will be accusations. The Secretary of State welcomed challenges but you can say that publicly and deny it behind closed doors.
An army of poll watchers
Poll watchers that were supposed to be there and doing their job weren’t allowed to. The RNC is working on a formidable election team.
Trump said, “What we want to do is train 100,000 people all across this country to be part of that team. That means we want poll watchers. But not just that. We want poll workers. We have a unique opportunity right now that we have not had in 40 years as a party.”
There was a 1982 consent decree in place prohibiting this activity. A federal judge terminated this in 2018. Specialized training is needed to be dealt with on the spot.
“We can train you to work in a polling location. We can train you to work in a tabulation center where the mail-in ballots come in. We also want attorneys to work in every major polling location so we are not reactive, we are proactive. The second you see an issue, we address it. We’re gonna have war rooms set up all across this country in every state, as well, to deal with things as they happen, not days, weeks or months later.”
