Trump campaign appeals voter intimidation order

[Jacque67 7,328]

Republican Donald Trump's presidential campaign is appealing a federal judge's order that seeks to prevent his campaign and supporters from harassing or intimidating Ohio voters.

An attorney for Trump's campaign on Friday filed a notice to appeal the decision to 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati. The campaign's arguments will be filed later.

U.S. District Judge James Gwin in Cleveland ruled Friday anyone who engages in intimidation or harassment inside or near polling places would face contempt of court charges.

The judge's decision to grant a temporary restraining order follows a complaint filed by the Ohio Democratic Party, which says "racially charged language" used by Trump is a call to action for his supporters to be poll watchdogs.

Trump's campaign says his comments about a "rigged" election are protected political speech.

"The judge's written order blocks activities from both campaigns that include unauthorized poll watching, the admonishing or questioning of voters, and taking photos or recording voters inside or near polling places"

What will Trumps campaign argue against?

What will Trumps campaign argue against?

Indeed. Stalling tactics.
