Trump supporters protest outside Fairfax early voting site
FAIRFAX, Va. - First it was mail-in voting.
Now some of President Trump's supporters are protesting in-person, early voting in Virginia. Anthony Tilghman shared video of the protest Saturday in Fairfax with FOX 5.
Tilghman tells FOX 5 that the protesters first blocked the entrance to the polling site before officials forced them to move 40 feet away as required by law.
Tilghman reported that election officials eventually moved voters waiting in line inside because of the protests.
President Trump has repeatedly attacked mail-in voting on the campaign trail, saying without credible evidence the practice is ripe for fraud.
Officials in many states are boosting availability for early, dropoff and mail-in voting in light of the need for social distance during the coronavirus pandemic.
Early voting in Virginia began Friday and will last till Saturday, Oct. 31.
