California Election Worker Removed for Wearing Trump 2020 Attire at Polling Place
Californians have gone to the polls to cast their ballots in the states gubernatorial recall election. But at one polling place in West Hollywood there were some election shenanigans as Larry Elder might put it.
A poll worker was photographed at the voting site wearing a Trump 2020 hat and a t-shirt that reads Wheres Hunter?, a reference to President Joe Bidens son.
Its unclear when the photo was taken, but the first posting of it on Twitter seems to have occurred on Monday, which would mean it was taken not on Tuesday the last day to vote but on Monday or earlier at a location where early in-person voting was available. The photo was posted by an unverified account, and it purported to be from the posters friend in West Hollywood.

Ultimately, the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk confirmed that the man in the photo was indeed a poll worker. That is, until he was removed.

I hope he is on a banned list to never be able to get a job working as a poll worker.
