Fiendish Thingy

1. Numerous states have been wargaming these scenarios

And have done so for the past several cycles.

Remember all the lawyers who were disbarred after filing false, evidence free challenges to the 2020 elections?

Remember how Kari Lake lost all her challenges? For two different races?

Remember how Tina Peters went to prison?

Remember how Rudi went bankrupt for defaming those Georgia poll workers?

This is not the first rodeo for states with Democratic, and in some cases, Republican secretaries of state and Elections officers.

I think Texas is one state at high risk for ratfuckery by state officials, but in most other states, (at least the ones that will matter for Dem control of house and senate), I’m not worried about their ability to repel any nuisance challenges.
