Federal Agents Demand Election Worker Delete Social Media Post at Voting Site

Two federal agents approached an election worker in Syracuse on June 27, 2026, at a polling place and ordered her to delete an Instagram post about an immigration agent involved in a shooting. The agents said she broke a federal law against publishing someone's personal information to harm them. The confrontation raises questions about whether federal agents should be making demands at voting locations, which are controlled by state and local officials. No one has been charged.
