Trump fan Val Biancaniello beat ‘intimidated’ voters at the polls

Trump supporter and RNC official Valerie Biancaniello was handcuffed and escorted out of the line after multiple complaints. She “slandered” voters at a polling station and “told them who to vote for.”

Former President Donald Trump has ping-ponged about the issue of early voting before deciding a push would benefit him.

The Trump campaign released a memo Tuesday morning claiming “Pennsylvania voter arrested for fighting voter suppression” with a viral social media clamp they claim that officials are “actively suppressing” votes:

Today, Val Biancaniello was arrested in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, for encouraging people to stay in line and vote. Election officials told voters to leave, without any reason, and actively suppressed their right to vote.

…

Just this morning, the RNC sent a demand letter to the Pennsylvania Secretary of State after voters reported that computers are down, polling places are closing early and no longer accepting voters, and that their ballots will not be counted. This situation is the exact opposite of secure elections.

This is voter suppression. Pennsylvania election officials must immediately ensure fair and transparent elections for Pennsylvania voters.

President Trump’s supporters should not be intimidated during the elections. It’s your right to vote – make a plan to vote and vote now!

The clip shows Biancaniello being led away from the line in handcuffs as she and other Trump supporters loudly protest. She protested her innocence also on X/Twitter:

Stay in line and #Vote! They arrested me and I didn’t break any laws. I encouraged people to stay in line and vote because Democrats were discouraging voters from voting in person in Delaware County today. The election worker even told people in line to go to the satellite office in Chester Heights because the line was shorter there. Do you know what happened when they showed up at the Chester Heights office to vote in person? They were told that they no longer had MIB applications. This is voter suppression in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. I have done nothing wrong except encourage people to stay in line and vote. So they arrested me. TO VOTE!

But police said the detention was the result of repeated violations of election law and “disorderly conduct.” By Linda Stein bee Delaware Valley Journal:

Asked for comment, Ryan Herlinger, a spokesperson for Delaware County, said: “Four witnesses in line voluntarily gave statements to Park Police reporting that the individual in question harassed voters in line and told them who to vote for . When park police heard the commotion, they responded and instructed the woman to stop bothering voters and leave the area. When the woman refused, she was cited for disorderly conduct. Ensuring a safe, accessible and respectful voting environment for all residents is our top priority, and we remain committed to facilitating a fair and secure election process.”
