Fears of voter intimidation and violence have never surrounded an Election Day more than the one coming Tuesday.
– Fears of voter intimidation and violence have never surrounded an Election Day more than the one coming Tuesday – it's why faith leaders from across the country plan to station at polling sites, including at least a dozen in North Texas. But for the first time outside some polling sites, there will also be people like Rev. Valencia Edner.
The Fort Worth minister will be one of nearly 100 spiritual leaders stationed outside voting centers across Texas, working as polling chaplains. "We find ourselves in a political season that is toxic, it's poisonous," said Dr. Frederick Haynes, senior pastor of Friendship West Baptist Church. He is overseeing the presence of polling chaplains in Texas.
