Perhaps the most comprehensive effort in the works is called the New Battlefield Project, which aims to train tens of thousands of “democracy protectors” to observe polling places. It aims to amplify a call for in-person voting, help create a centralized information hub for Democrats in each state and ensure there is a director for election protection in all 50 states (filling gaps for the Democratic National Committee, which has fielded more than 30 and is also associated with the project).
The New Battlefield effort was launched through the Association of State Democratic Committees led by the group’s president, Nebraska Democratic State Party Chair Jane Kleeb, and Simon Rosenberg, a longtime Democratic operative and organizer who now runs Hopium Chronicles, a newsletter and grassroots group.
The observer training is modeled after Minneapolis Democrats’ training for constitutional observers, which was put together earlier this year after thousands of immigration officers descended on the city. It will train volunteers to use video on their phones to track and document behaviors of federal law enforcement or other potential threats in a lawful manner.

Mass action exists. It’s happening. But like so much else, it won’t be televised
Turns out the “Tabletop exercise” was just Hillary Clinton playing Avalon Hill’s “Diplomacy”…
Hell yeah
Chuck Schumer has got his most serious pen out for this one! You know, the one with the skulls on it he got from Myrtle Beach
Shit, fuck, everyone stop what you are doing. Not a fucking drill.
He is at the podium and his glasses are one fucking third the way down his nose!
That “potential” word here is very…. hopeful? Polyannaish? Aspirational? Optimistic? Yeah optimistic is the word I’m looking for here.
Election disruptions?
Like BLM and Antifa riots?
Yes, they should do something about that.Riots for just causes like racial equality and anti-fascism are good, actually ☺️
But god damn, you must live in another reality if you somehow believe movements for justice are somehow the biggest disruption to elections and not the jackboot thumbs kidnapping people and sending them to concentration camps. I hope you snap out of it.
Went through his comments out of curiosity. Dude is a Sound of Freedom tier pedo-hunter and keeps getting banned from communities for the hot takes.
Columbo would never say that shit.
