They aren't allowing video of the operation? Even if individual watchers can't film I'd think having a few livestream cameras mounted up would be in everyone's best interest?

Dane county has some but they look maybe relatively useless

Looks maybe from the wide shot like there aren't enough observers

The counting for Dane County is taking place at the Monona Terrace. I’ve been speaking with Dane County GOP and they’ve been working hard to keep the pressure on. Some shifts are lighter and some are heavier for volunteers though. There’s definitely a fear here, and I assume elsewhere in the country, of persecution for taking part though. Based on my previous experiences in Madison, that is a valid concern.

Didn’t say people weren’t still engaged, just that there is a credible fear for their safety.

There are over 100 would-be Trump observers waiting in line outside to sign in.

Imagine what the left would do if there was a video documenting who voted for who.

I do think the process should be video'd as long as names are kept anonymous.
