Hennepin County Minnesota Bans DOJ Monitors Inside Polling Places

Hennepin County has denied the Department of Justice’s request to place election monitors inside Minneapolis-area polling places for Tuesday’s midterm election. The county will be forcing federal staff to remain outside the state’s 100-foot boundary, in plain clothes, and limit them to voluntary interviews with voters after they leave. The decision, confirmed by the office of Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty, is the same rule they applied during the August primary. The DOJ is currently deploying monitors nationwide, including teams focused on Minneapolis, Brooklyn Park, and Brooklyn Center. Read the rest of the story, link in the comments.
