Federal Monitors Watch Minnesota Vote | Spokane News
Description
Federal monitors are deploying to Minnesota’s primary election to ensure fair access for all voters, including those with disabilities or language barriers — a move Attorney General Keith Ellison says is routine and unproblematic. While Ellison urges turnout, Governor Tim Walz compares the setup to a fox watching a henhouse, echoing past concerns from President Trump about election integrity. Hennepin County declined internal monitoring, placing federal teams 100 yards from polling sites where they may voluntarily interview voters — but county officials stress that no one can interfere with voting or intimidate anyone, with legal action ready for violations.
