Statement summary
Emma Vigeland warns that Gov. Greg Abbott may welcome a federal deployment of ICE to Texas polling stations to intimidate Latino voters in November.
“Texas Democrats better be prepared for Abbott to welcome Trump and Stephen Miller's deployment of ICE Gestapo to polling stations to intimidate Latino Texans in November. They have already test-run this tactic, and they will have a fervent voter suppression ally in the governor.”

Why we used this label
Relative to armed federal agents at or near polling places, Vigeland describes such a deployment as voter intimidation and suppression. That opposes it.
