The leader of a right-wing extremist group in Georgia told USA TODAY before the election he has “troops” ready to descend on polling places if he hears reports of voter fraud. His group is part of the “three percenter” movement, which is based on the false claim that only 3% of Americans fought in the Revolutionary War against the British.
“We’re going in undercover to start with,” Justin Thayer said. “We don’t want to intimidate anyone, and we’re not aligned with any political party, but if we do discover fraud, we have guys on standby, and if we need to shut down a precinct, we will.”
Reached Tuesday morning, Thayer said all was calm. "So far, so good," he said.
Stuart Rhodes, founder of the Trump-supporting Oath Keepers group, told the conspiracy theory-driven website Infowars that his members are essentially planning for a civil war.
“Frankly, we’re concerned about a Benghazi-style attack,” Rhodes said in the interview, referring to the 2012 attack against American embassy facilities in Libya. “That’s why Oath Keepers will be posted outside of D.C. We’ve got some of our best men working on the plan right now.”
Experts say that in addition to stirring up conspiracy theories, threats like that are designed to discourage voters from turning out.

III percenters and Oath Keepers are extremists. Preparing to descend and shut down polling precincts ... having guys with guns stationed outside of DC?
Go in the woods and play fort.
