PHILADELPHIA -- Donald Trump has seemed intent on The Erotic Witch Project 4: Lust in Spacegetting his fans to "watch" polls on Election Day, particularly in heavily Democratic Philadelphia, where he had asked supporters to "go around and watch other polling places.”
But in the City of Brotherly Love on Tuesday, voters mostly laughed off the idea that marauding bands of Trump supporters would show up at polling places to stop them from casting ballots.

"We don't worry about that," Donnamarie Bailey, a veteran poll volunteer at Holsey Temple Christian Methodist Episcopal Church, told Mashable.
She looked at me like, come on -- we're fine.
And they have been. Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams reported no "founded allegations of voter intimidation in Philadelphia" as of 2 p.m. ET. Conservative activist James O'Keefe spent part of his day tailing a pastor's van as the pastor took voters to the polls, but Williams said he hadn't received any intimidation complaints as a result.

Several Clinton voters in Philadelphia just shook their heads and chuckled to themselves at the thought of Trump supporter intimidation.
"I'm not really for Donald Trump's shenanigans," Stephanie Green, who brought her young daughter along to vote, told Mashable. "I don't pay attention to what he's saying."
Marsie Shubert, another polling station volunteer passing out information outside Widener Library, compared Trump's talk to something like mildly bothersome background noise.
"It's like when someone is talking to you but you're not really listening," she told Mashable. "You're there, but..."

Plenty of voters didn't seem worried even if they did run into bands of menacing Trump devotees.
"Whatever you have standing there doesn't walk in that booth with me," Charlene Jackson, who works with mentally handicapped adults in Philadelphia, told Mashable. "It's a private space that I walk in by myself."
It's not as if they were taking the notion lightly. It's that, as voters churned in and out of polls in the city throughout the day, the idea that aggressive bands of Trumpians would alter the outcome of Pennsylvania began to seem like some kind of strange joke.
"I can't see nothing transpiring that's so overwhelming that it's gonna make a difference in the vote," Verna Brown, a polling volunteer, told Mashable.
