Tit for tat babyThe Republican Party and its conservative allies are engaged in an unprecedented legal campaign targeting the American voting system. Their wide-ranging and methodical effort is laying the groundwork to contest an election that they argue, falsely, is already being rigged against former President Donald J. Trump.…
At the heart of the strategy is a drive to convince voters that the election is about to be stolen, even without evidence. Democrats use mail voting, drop boxes and voter registration drives to swing elections, they have argued. And Mr. Trump’s indictments and criminal conviction are a Biden administration gambit to interfere with the election, they claim.
“As things stand right now, there’s zero chance of a free and fair election,” Mike Howell, a project director at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, said at an event this week. “I’m formally accusing the Biden administration of creating the conditions that most reasonable policymakers and officials cannot in good conscience certify an election.”

*******************
These “conservatives” (Cons) really do despise the American electoral system and the people’s right to choose their leaders. An authoritarian presidency is right in line with their thinking and desires.
The Cons are lined up with their lies in the event of a Trump loss.
In my view, a Trump defeat may be in the offing regardless of the Democratic nominee. The Cons know it which is why they’re preparing their army of prevaricators and disrupters to dispute the election result with lies and disinformation.
American democracy is truly on the line in this election.
Did you have any issues with how several states illegally changed their election procedures in 2020? Do as the democrats do cheat at all cost.
