White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said she cannot guarantee that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents will not be stationed outside polling locations during this year’s midterm elections. She made this statement during a press briefing when asked directly if the administration plans to deploy enforcement officers near voting booths in November.
According to Unilad, the question came after former White House strategist Steve Bannon made controversial comments on his podcast earlier that week. He claimed, “We’re going to have ICE surround the polls come November.”
