If a non-partisan observer can think of a good reason why court-appointed GOP inspectors are being tossed out of 13 precincts in Philadelphia, I am willing to listen. Otherwise, there is only one reason why they would bar the opposition from legally observing the election; they don't want any witnesses.

Geraghty:

The Philadelphia GOP is reporting that court appointed Minority (read GOP) Inspectors are being thrown out of polling locations in several Wards.

The Philadelphia Inquirer is on it:  https://twitter.com/tomfitzgerald/status/265784062617206785

These Inspectors are election officials - again, court appointed - and are reportedly being thrown out by the Head Judges of Elections (these Judges are elected Democrats).

This has happened at the following locations:

Ward 32, Div 13

Ward 43, Div 14

Ward 56, Div 1

Ward 56, Div 22

Ward 32, Div 28

Ward 12, Div 17

Ward 39, Div 1

Ward 24, Div 9

Ward 18, Div 25

Ward 43, Div 14

Ward 29, Div 18

Ward 65, Div 19

Ward 20, Div 1

Ward 6, Div 11

Whatever shenanigans they were going to pull has probably already occurred so even if the Republicans are allowed back in, it's too late to stop whatever cheating the Democrats had planned.
