DC #ElectionWorkers have been fielding angry calls & emails for over a month from people who oppose allowing #noncitizen residents to #vote in local #elections, leaving the head of the DC Board of Elections concerned about #safety at the polls in Tues’s primary.
“I am definitely nervous,” said Monica Evans, BOE exec dir. “The environment around elections has felt more unsafe.”
In one vm…, a caller yells: “Where the hell do you get off letting illegals vote? This is the nation’s capital. You are traitors, traitors to our country.”
Evans said that employees have been encouraged to cover up any DC BOE paraphernalia they may be wearing or holding while outside the office in case someone who opposes #noncitizen voting directs their opinion toward a staffer. DC police spox said in a stmnt that officers would be near polling locations “ensuring #safety for voters” #democracy
