Wyoming Cops Called Over Combative West Staffers

The Casper Star-Tribune reports:

Laramie County law enforcement was called to polling places and the county clerk there fielded more than a half-dozen reports Tuesday of staffers for Kanye West and another independent candidate acting aggressively and apparently violating state law at nearly every polling location in the capital county.

The Laramie County clerk said that there were repeated reports of signature gatherers for West and fellow independent candidate Brock Pierce being too close to polling stations across the county and that the staffers were aggressively pursuing voters.

Clerk Debra Lee said her office fielded multiple calls from six of the county’s seven locations, including one in Pine Bluffs, population 1,100. In some cases, Lee said, the signature gatherers were combative with poll workers after they told the staffers they needed to move away.

West’s signature gatherers reportedly told passersby that they needed to sign the petition papers as part of the primary election process. As has been widely reported, West’s staffers are actually Trump supporters.
