What could be the purpose other than to intimidate folks?
None other than intimidation, why do they need guns.

The value is those people are hoping to turn voters away people don't want their personal information and picture posted on some social media forum.

It's easy to get someone's personal information from a license plate just have to know anyone who has a car dealer license. I'm sure there are other easy ways to get the information. IMO this is voter intimidation is a violation of the voting rights act.

Antifa executes people in the streets and democrats call it "peaceful protesting" but people sitting close to a ballot box are committing "voter intimidation."

No one could possibly receive more than 1 ballot, you don't just get them, you have to request a ballot, and every mail-in ballot is tracked every step of the way, from post office to return to the county election board headquarters, and they even confirm when the ballot has been processed.
Interesting I received 2 extra ballots for former residents last year. Seems pretty sloppy to me

ANd being the responsible adult-
You went to the local elections office to return those ballots and show that you and you alone are the only current resident at that address.
or---
threw them in the trash. -
or-
You shredded them .

I'd have opted for the first option.

ANd since None here can verify the validity of your statement We shall assume you did the right thing as an adult.

Our state has voter safety rules- Even near poll stations on voting day it regulates the By standers-
Such as no posters , signs or political persuasion is to be displayed , broadcasted or demonstrated. We also have no weapons ( such as knives, guns, bombs , ) within 75 yards of the area unless such person is regulated there by the city,county or election board for secure safety.

To say voter intimidation tactics are moot is evidentially false. Reports have been remitted to law enforcement and investigations have proceeded. Every voter has the right to be safe at the drop box or poll station. Go take your weaponry out for a walk in a forest or at a target range.

I hope we all can agree that the right and honor to vote need not be at the peril of a life or harm to such a person.

So why is this suddenly an issue if a couple of people do it at a drop box? I think it's because the Dems have staged the stunt to make it look like the R's are doing it.
as another posted there is a difference between consensual and non consensual filming.

Never heard of her and didn't know Bannon had a podcast, but I don't listen to any talking heads on the networks or elsewhere.

Not following what point you're trying to make here?

Pretty sure that Hillary and Trump both like ice cream, *shrug*.

In the summer of 2020, an Antifa member in Portland shot a Trump supporter twice in the chest because he had a Trump flag. This was one of the many times Antifa members have murdered or assaulted right wingers because they held different opinions. Democrats know this. They just lie about it.
