Info from Licensor: "A group in political attire caused a stir at the polls in Virginia, after being told they couldn't enter. My sister and I were campaigning nearby with our kids when they mistook us for officials and confronted us irrationally, asking if were we going to say anything about other voters wearing Spanberger shirts. I sensed trouble and starting recording with my glasses. My sister responded, “We didn’t say anything about anything.” They didn’t let up, so I pulled a tactic white women often use in uncomfortable situations and played the victim to de-escalate, causing the older woman to lunge at me and react with threats. A poll volunteer quickly intervened and escorted the group away."
