在密苏里州圣查尔斯县,共和党委员特拉维斯·艾伦·海因斯(Travis Allen Heins)提起诉讼,试图阻止提前投票,直到投票观察者能够观察选举过程为止。 In St. Charles County, Missouri, Republican committeeman Travis Allen Heins has filed a lawsuit seeking to halt early voting until poll watchers can observe the process. 他辩称,由于立即对选票进行扫描,透明度在他们不在场的情况下受到损害。 He argues that transparency is compromised without their presence, as ballots are scanned immediately. 早期投票在法院审议期间将继续进行,参加投票的人数显著增加。 Early voting, which has seen a significant increase in participation, will continue while the court deliberates. 批评者认为这项诉讼是一种潜在的镇压选民策略。 Critics view the lawsuit as a potential voter suppression tactic.
