While the judge found that the “Defendants’ conduct does not fall into any traditionally recognized category of voter intimidation” and there was no “evidence that Defendants’ conduct constitutes a true threat,” he “acknowledge[d] that Plaintiffs and many voters are legitimately alarmed by the observers.” In the end, though, the judge decided this alarm does not constitute grounds for an order temporarily preventing the defendants from further engaging in this behavior. The plaintiffs have already appealed this decision to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
