Now the @GOP are working here, too, to discredit elections. Understand this: no matter how overwhelming the loss, they'll allege fraud, because the only elections they consider valid are ones they win.
(Are various @wagop members involved? Absolutely.)
-----
They're not dumb enough to claim right out that results were changed. Not here.
They're just raising questions, you see, by filing a set of lawsuits based on Arizona-style bullshit, demanding an Arizona-style "audit" circus.
As one does when one wants discredit elections.
-----
What they want is an Arizona clown-car "audit" in every state they don't win, so that all elections they lose are "stolen."
As a profoundly anti-democratic party, discrediting elections is in the @GOP's best interest.
They'll bring it to every state they can.
Including yours.
-----
This is one reason why @SenateDems and @HouseDemocrats need to STOP FUCKING AROUND AND GET VOTING RIGHTS PASSED while you still can.
Because if they'll bring this shit here? They'll bring it everywhere.
