Reports have emerged of voter suppression and intimidation in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, during early voting. According to multiple accounts, individuals allegedly posing as election officials, described as Democrats with fake badges, have been pushing voters out of lines and telling them to come back later or go to other locations. Long lines have been observed for days across counties in Pennsylvania, with voters waiting hours only to be turned away. In Doylestown, emergency services reportedly shut down the voting line at 2:41 PM, hours before the scheduled closing time of 5 PM. Some voters have refused to leave polling places, leading to accusations that armed officers were used to enforce closures. There are calls for Governor Josh Shapiro and the Pennsylvania Department of State to address these incidents, which some describe as voter suppression and interference.
