SCREEN TEXT: PARTY LINE

 

00:00:39,593 --> 00:00:42,193

- It goes down, up, round the outside.

 

00:00:43,376 --> 00:00:44,292

- Jeez.

 

00:00:44,292 --> 00:00:46,211

- Down and around the building.

 

00:00:46,211 --> 00:00:47,859

Less than two hours.

 

00:00:47,859 --> 00:00:48,920

- Less than two hours?

 

00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:49,753

- Yeah.

 

00:00:49,753 --> 00:00:51,940

(mumbling)

 

00:00:51,940 --> 00:00:54,140

- Hey Siri, Facetime Andrea.

 

00:00:54,140 --> 00:00:55,890

- She was probably saying an hour.

 

00:00:59,940 --> 00:01:01,613

- Hey Siri, Facetime Andrea.

 

00:01:04,482 --> 00:01:07,560

- [Siri] Making Facetime

call to Andrea Lorny

 

00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,227

(Facetime ringing)

 

00:01:13,370 --> 00:01:16,256

- This line is outrageous.

 

00:01:16,256 --> 00:01:17,804

I'll show you, bro.

 

00:01:17,804 --> 00:01:19,440

It's off the chain.

 

00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,500

- He's operating at, like

a, meta political level.

 

00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:24,641

I can't even have conversations

with him about stuff I see

 

00:01:24,641 --> 00:01:26,183

on TV because he's operating

 

00:01:26,183 --> 00:01:29,213

in some extra-reality-like thing.

 

00:01:32,197 --> 00:01:34,060

Eh, he's probably right

about a lot of things,

 

00:01:34,060 --> 00:01:37,813

but he's, you know, he's

operating sort of outside

 

00:01:37,813 --> 00:01:42,788

the bubble of reality that

the rest of us are living in.

 

00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,270

- [Bystander] Afternoon,

last day for early voting

 

00:01:48,270 --> 00:01:50,250

So, yeah, have any friends, let them know.

 

00:01:50,250 --> 00:01:51,245

They'll get here.

 

00:01:51,245 --> 00:01:52,078

All right.

 

00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,119

How you doing? Go Buckeyes, in there.

 

00:01:55,119 --> 00:01:56,981

Would you guys like some stickers?

 

00:01:57,940 --> 00:02:00,993

Hey, make sure you text your friends, ah.

 

00:02:00,993 --> 00:02:03,393

Tell them today's the

last day for early voting.

 

00:02:04,970 --> 00:02:06,783

- Fruit snacks, Gatorade, water.

 

00:02:07,842 --> 00:02:09,202

Come on over, son.

 

00:02:09,202 --> 00:02:10,422

- Thank you.

 

00:02:10,422 --> 00:02:12,010

- Come on over.

 

00:02:12,010 --> 00:02:13,775

Yes sir, what you need?

 

00:02:13,775 --> 00:02:15,517

One per person, that's all it takes.

 

00:02:15,517 --> 00:02:16,617

Get you some, y'all.

 

00:02:18,268 --> 00:02:21,351

(indistinct chatter)

 

00:02:32,620 --> 00:02:35,550

- Morning folks, I'm Ron

O'Brien, County Prosecutor.

 

00:02:35,550 --> 00:02:37,350

Appreciate your consideration today.

 

00:02:40,780 --> 00:02:41,613

Thank you.

 

00:02:44,780 --> 00:02:46,180

How you doing?

 

00:02:46,180 --> 00:02:48,327

Give you a flier there.

 

00:02:48,327 --> 00:02:50,600

Been a Prosecutor for 'bout 20 years now.

 

00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,130

Fighting, ah, violent criminals

and protecting victims.

 

00:02:53,130 --> 00:02:55,553

So, appreciate your consideration.

 

00:02:57,956 --> 00:03:00,922

- They're passing this

out in the back, folks.

 

00:03:00,922 --> 00:03:02,800

They're passing this out.

 

00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,140

It doesn't say Democrat,

it doesn't say Republican.

 

00:03:06,140 --> 00:03:08,650

Which means, it is not official.

 

00:03:08,650 --> 00:03:12,460

It looks like it's a Democratic

ballet because its blue.

 

00:03:12,460 --> 00:03:15,930

Everybody on this sheet are Republicans.

 

00:03:15,930 --> 00:03:17,410

So, don't be fooled.

 

00:03:17,410 --> 00:03:20,018

You vote your conscious,

but I won't allow you

 

00:03:20,018 --> 00:03:21,960

to walk in there and be fooled.

 

00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:23,850

This is Ohio, baby, this weather,

 

00:03:23,850 --> 00:03:25,290

this is good football weather.

 

00:03:25,290 --> 00:03:27,550

Y'all know if it was an Ohio State Game,

 

00:03:27,550 --> 00:03:29,377

you'd be out there with your shorts on!

 

00:03:29,377 --> 00:03:31,365

(laughing)

 

00:03:31,365 --> 00:03:32,428

It ain't cold!

 

00:03:32,428 --> 00:03:33,487

Oh, I'm freezing.

 

00:03:33,487 --> 00:03:35,970

(laughing)

 

00:03:35,970 --> 00:03:36,920

Black lives matter,

 

00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,270

and that's why we must vote anti-abortion.

 

00:03:39,270 --> 00:03:41,030

Last year, according to Washington Post,

 

00:03:41,030 --> 00:03:42,520

fourteen unarmed Black people

 

00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,220

were shot and killed by the police.

 

00:03:44,220 --> 00:03:47,100

In that same year over

230 thousand unarmed

 

00:03:47,100 --> 00:03:49,510

Black people, according

to the CDC were killed

 

00:03:49,510 --> 00:03:51,017

by elective abortion.

 

00:03:51,017 --> 00:03:52,670

You can use your vote.

 

00:03:52,670 --> 00:03:54,740

You'd be a voice for them.

 

00:03:54,740 --> 00:03:57,090

Because all Black lives matter.

 

00:03:57,090 --> 00:03:59,180

Not just those born like us.

 

00:03:59,180 --> 00:04:00,729

Every single one.

(indistinct chatter)

 

00:05:23,975 --> 00:05:24,808

- Okay, now I have my chair.

 

00:05:24,808 --> 00:05:26,017

Do I take that back there with me?

 

00:05:26,017 --> 00:05:27,850

I can, I can bring it?

 

00:05:27,850 --> 00:05:29,524

Well, that's my drivers license.

 

00:05:29,524 --> 00:05:30,664

Okay, thank you.

 

00:05:30,664 --> 00:05:33,747

(indistinct chatter)

 

00:05:42,766 --> 00:05:45,433

(scanner clicks)

 

00:05:46,419 --> 00:05:48,419

- Put that away.

 

00:05:48,419 --> 00:05:51,573

Make sure your information

is correct and sign in.

 

00:05:54,109 --> 00:05:54,942

Sign in.

 

00:05:55,966 --> 00:05:59,699

- If I can have you at eleven on the left.

 

00:05:59,699 --> 00:06:03,368

Now, if I can have you

at twelve on the left.

 

00:06:03,368 --> 00:06:04,909

Thank you.

 

00:06:04,909 --> 00:06:07,977

Can I have you hold please.

 

00:06:07,977 --> 00:06:09,644

Right there in line.

 

00:06:13,466 --> 00:06:15,065

Ma'am, excuse me.

 

00:06:15,065 --> 00:06:18,659

Can I have you at six?

Down here on the right.

 

00:06:18,659 --> 00:06:20,256

All of you together?

 

00:06:20,256 --> 00:06:23,339

(car engine running)

 

SCREEN TEXT: A 2011 Ohio state law restricts the number of in-person early voting sites to just one per county.

 

00:06:31,157 --> 00:06:34,074

(breaks squeaking)

 

SCREEN TEXT: In Franklin County, Ohio’s most populated county, 117,356 people voted early and in-person in the 2020 general election.

 

00:06:37,728 --> 00:06:39,895

(beeping)

 

00:06:46,836 --> 00:06:50,293

(indistinct chatter)

 

00:06:50,293 --> 00:06:53,293

- [Bystander] What are you here for?

 

00:06:59,947 --> 00:07:02,947

(car engine roars)
