Alright, I’m back at the Maricopa County elections office where their are still supporters of the president gathered, although it’s currently a smaller crowd than last night. County is supposed to report more votes at 7 p.m. (6 p.m. Pacific time)
Hearing a lot of talk from protesters about how the media is getting coverage of this protest wrong. So I asked one of them, Abel Belgian, what his specific complaints were
Fwiw, I think pretty much all parties, except the president and Republicans still defending him, are want a free and fair election
Also fwiw, he is right that there haven’t been any violent clashes. The closest thing to that I saw last night was defused relatively quickly by the majority of the Trump protesters
But, there are definitely still guys walking around with guns, so
This guy is trying to mess up someone’s live shot by shouting about a Biden conspiracy theory
Alex Jones is here again lol
Both nights I’ve had bad luck getting close enough to see my dude Alex Jones very well, but I’m not sure that it matters because it’s honestly difficult to understand what he is talking/shouting about
Now we want to arrest Bill Gates, for some reason
Alex Jones is leaving
New Maricopa votes just came in. New votes broke about 55% for Trump and 45% for Biden, but Biden still leads in the county. I think I’ll leave it to one of the Nates to explain where that’s enough for Trump to eventually close the gap in AZ
This guy’s glasses omg – bei Maricopa County Elections Department

Next Maricopa County vote drop is 9 a.m. (8 pacific) tomorrow. I’ll be back then. For now, here are some interviews from tonight
Juliette Denton said she was out in front of the elections office tonight so she could “be in the know”
Charlene Haskin shared that she used to be a supporter of Bernie Sanders, but her political views have shifted right
Earlier I asked Haskin why she was at the county elections office and what she was hoping to accomplish. This is what she told me. She brings up concerns about voter fraud, for which there is currently no evidence fwiw
I asked where she was seeing evidence of voter fraud and she couldn’t really give me an answer beyond “videos of people fraudulently filling out ballots” (not sure where those videos are or what that refers to” and refers to sharpiegate, which has already been debunked
