Shenanigans!

* Email last night…

Rich,

Good evening! I was handing out some literature in front of Glenview Townhall (Northern suburban Cook County) and I had the pleasure of standing semi-near this guy.

He’s a paid worker for Epstein that has been harassing other Democratic candidates, lying about endorsements, trashing the party, harassing voters, getting really belligerent with me and other volunteers. He ignored multiple calls from the Election Judges to stay on the right side of the line, and stop harassing people on their way in. Real class act.

I took these photos, and you have permission to use them if you like. Thought you might be interested.

Thanks, and keep up the great work!

Daniel Epstein is a Democratic candidate for Illinois Supreme Court.

* I edited out the person’s face…

* Epstein campaign manager Bobby Burns…

Thanks for sharing. We’re handling it. We work hard to make sure everyone on this campaign follows the rules and this won’t be an exception.

All’s well that ends well, I suppose.

…Adding… Heh…

ELECTION DAY VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We are looking for volunteers to poll pass on Election Day –
Tuesday, March 17!

Volunteers on the ground have made a difference during early voting and we need to continue the momentum on Tuesday. Click here to sign up for a shift.

*If you have the day off, we are especially in need of people who can sign up for a full day/multiple shifts!*

Thank you for being in this with us until the end.

- Team Epstein

I’m hearing that the price of election day poll workers has doubled for campaigns.

Why is the word “Electioneering” is taped onto the sign?

Parking sign repurposed

Is the sign placed correctly?

Was out yesterday in Evanston at the Civic Center and he had two staffers out there. I talked to the husband of a county wide candidate who told me that everywhere he and his wife had been there was an Epstein campaign worker. He must be paying a lot of dough himself for this.

Volunteers at Evanston were nice, though.

That picture is like a staged “don’t be this guy” kinda instruction thing.

Hilarious, lol

Dogs do tend to look like their masters, and Epstein’s “volunteers” seem to share characteristics with him.

This needs to be closed/banned too.

Given the Coronavirus scare, handing out palm cards at polling places has to be more difficult than ever. In fact, now that I think of it, should it even be allowed this year?

Always recommend your palm card passers to dress like “Suspect #1.” /s

In other election news, Louisiana just delayed its primary from April 4 to June 20.

Is this guy yelling “Mr. Carter”

I can recall entering a polling place a few election cycles ago as a poll watcher. I was dressed in a suit and tie as I had just come from court. Several Bozos like the one in your photographs scattered from zone they were not permitted to be in that morning. When I approached the Election Judges and gave them my poll watching credentials, they thanked me as they had threatened to call the States’ Attorney on them and felt that the Bozos thought I was the one called. I had to go back outside and tell the Bozos I was not from the States Attorneys office but I heard they were on the way just to play it safe and avoid any accusations that I was somehow misrepresenting myself.

Nothing like election day stories. I’m sure most of us here have a bunch of them.

He is sending out mass texts today, too! He is touting his endorsements there, too.

I can’t believe Epstein has enough money to pay for palmcarders.
