Conservative influencers charged with unlawful voting, disguising themselves in ‘Muslim garb’

James O’Keefe and Cam Higby were trying to show vulnerabilities in allowing a voter to vouch for another

Two rightwing influencers have been charged with felonies in Minneapolis over attempts in the state’s election primary to disguise themselves in what they called “Muslim garb” and claim they were local voters.

James O’Keefe and Cam Higby went to polling places in Minnesota during the state’s August primary in an attempt to show vulnerabilities in the practice of “vouching”, where a registered voter from the same precinct can vouch for another voter’s eligibility.
