Uh Oh, These States Are Already Having Voting Issues
People are experiencing voter suppression at its finest while waiting to cast their ballot at Levittown, Pennsylvania— a Republican stronghold— because of an apparent staff shortage.
Voters lined up to vote on Friday were told they had to leave because there wasn’t enough staff to cover the long lines of people wanting to cast their ballots. Due to the overwhelming number of people who came out to vote, early in-person voting was extended to November 1. People in line said they couldn’t return on Election Day due to work and previous engagements. Some of the voters interviewed had been waiting in line for nearly six hours, saying they were frustrated and angry at the lack of preparation.
Also, in Levittown, voters were told to fill out their ballots and hand them to election workers, who said they would put them into the machine later.

The same is happening in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where “elections officials did the bare minimum to comply with court’s order to provide voting access through 5 PM today,” Trump campaign’s James Blair said.

Blair said that some polling sites in the area were staffed with just one or two workers even though the 2024 election would see some of the most significant numbers of people in history voting.
