The first part of this tweet is absolutely not true, and people should stop repeating it. The uncontested testimony, including of the Trump campaign, is that when the doors were locked and windows covered, the Trump campaign had >100 watchers inside 1/

It turns out that the doors were closed and windows covered for good reason. Even though more than the allotted numbers of observers were inside, people (some not even poll watchers) were trying to barge in and record on phones. 2/
Obviously not a great situation for counters, who are probably volunteers, to be potentially put on social media. When they shut them out so the counters could work, people were crowding around windows trying to film. 3/
Bottom line, though, is that at no point were Trump's allotted portion of poll watchers removed from the room. Now, the second part of the tweet is news to me and I'll wait to hear the whistleblower. 4/
Credibility of this complaint does not increase, however, when it is right alongside something that has already been very thoroughly debunked. 5/
