Both sides are headed for a legal showdown on the issue in Pennsylvania -- a state Trump won in 2016 by about 44,000 votes out of 6 million cast. During the CPAC session, Clark said the campaign was working to recruit 50,000 volunteer poll watchers. Officials with the Trump campaign did not respond to inquiries this week about how many monitors it has added so far. "This year," he said, "we have the benefit of extra resources and extra manpower coming from the RNC and the (Trump) campaign." As part of the lawsuit, Republicans also want poll watchers to have access to locations where absentee ballots are returned.
