If you are looking around the office this morning, wondering where everyone is, they might not be home with a sick kid or out of town on business.
Chances are they are out observing polling places or standing by on-call waiting for to be sprung in to action.
The chairman of the Republican and Democratic-Farmer Labor parties both report they have an “unprecedented number of lawyers” fanned out across the state on Election Day.
The DFL Party even has 20 lawyers ready to go to file for injunctive relief if need be and a total of 600 working today. The Minnesota GOP didn’t provide a specific number of how many attorneys are waiting in the wings but did say it has more than any previous election.
Nationally, the two parties have approximately 10,000 lawyers ready to go today should they be needed.
