This is Not Normal - Ballots Cast in New Mexico Elections?
Frost McGahey, Investigative reporter
This is not normal! Watch Democrat's sign ripped away as Trump enters - Fox 2 Detroit
As President Trump walked down the aisle to give his Joint Speech to Congress, New Mexico Democrat Melanie Stansbury held up a sign. The President was shaking hands with Republicans, one of whom was Texas Congressman Lance Gooden.
Stansbury’s sign was a handmade piece of paper that read ‘This Is Not Normal'. She held it right behind the President’s head.
After President Trump passed, The Texan Republican snatched Stansbury’s sign and tossed it into the air. He said, “No one disrespects the President in front of me.”
“This is Not Normal” could apply to the number of ballots cast in New Mexico in the last three presidential elections.
