When you report to the Election Protection hotline, our coalition will take your report seriously. We will not stop working on the problem until we have ensured that every eligible voter is able to cast a ballot without fear.\r\n\r\nWe\u2019ve dealt with intimidation from immigration enforcement before. The morning of Election Day in 2018, an El Paso volunteer sent us this photo of CBP preparing to do a \u201ccrowd control exercise\u201d outside a large El Paso polling place.
