A poll worker in Syracuse, New York, was confronted by federal officers at a voting location over a social media post criticizing an ICE officer involved in a fatal shooting. The post, which called for the officer's indictment, was cited as potential 'doxxing' by the Department of Homeland Security, though it did not include the officer's address. The incident, recorded by another poll worker, did not disrupt voting and is under review by the New York Attorney General’s Office.
