WASHINGTON A group backing GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump revealed plans on a Monday night conference call to post anonymous reports online of so-called voter fraud and conduct unscientific exit polls in predominantly minority neighborhoods in Philadelphia and eight other cities.

We are not intimidating people, Andy Dion, an organizer for Stop the Steal, insisted on Monday. We are not voter intimidation. We are conducting a fair and equitable process of determining that there was a just vote. So remember that.

Stop the Steal has no official ties to the Trump campaign, but its the brainchild of Roger Stone, an infamous political dirty trickster and one of Trumps oldest friends in Washington.

More than 3,000 volunteers registered to conduct neutral, scientifically based and methodically sound exit polls at certain targeted precincts on Tuesday, Dion said on the Monday call with volunteers.

As of Tuesday afternoon, The Huffington Post was unaware of any reports of those volunteers being accused of actual voter harassment or intimidation.

The exit poll page of the site showed Trump winning 56 percent of the popular vote. According to HuffPost Pollsters database, the highest percentage of the popular vote Trump has achieved is 45 percent in a four-way race.
