..."MORALES-DOYLE: I mean, the most immediate consequence is that it might intimidate people away from voting. And that's really worrisome. I'm sure there will be people who are intimidated by this behavior. I hope that it doesn't stop anyone from voting. But I'm very worried that it might. I'm also worried about the long-term impact on our elections. Elections are something that we should celebrate. We should celebrate the fact that we have a democracy and that it works, even when it is facing unprecedented circumstances.
If people see elections as a scary thing, where people are, you know, standing, waiting for them with guns, then we're in a really worrisome place. I really worry that this intimidation that we're witnessing is just a symptom of a bigger problem, which is that a huge percentage of this country has been, you know, convinced not to believe in our democracy. And that's really something to worry about in the long term."...
