Umberg’s Occupation and Pringle Supporters’ Lawsuit
Quoting from the article “Pringle Partisans Sue Umberg Over His Title on Ballot” (Aug. 23): “The squeaker of a victory, however, was immediately marred by accusations that the Republicans had used dirty tricks to scare away potential Democratic voters by posting guards at several heavily Latino precincts in Santa Ana.”
As many times as I have read the above accusations, I have never heard an explanation as to how the Democrats arrived at the conclusion that the security guards were there to scare them away.
If a person is doing nothing wrong, why is there any reason to be intimidated or fearful of a security guard?
