Shame on anyone who ever thought they would let us win. They have been doing this since at least 2012 in a major way for Presidential elections. Trump out performed the fraud they had in place in 2016. After that they worked to ensure it would never happen again and set up built in fraud for congressional elections in areas where they knew they could do it. They do not try it in strong Republican places like Texas and Florida at least not in a major way. In places like Georgia they have Republicans actively complacent with it so they are allowed to win (see Kemp). The GOP will never control any true power in this country ever again.
There are ways to stifle Democrats who are cheating. First thing, we file class action lawsuits to prevent voter data from being turned over to political candidates or parties. Today, data indicated who has voted and who has not, is given to both parties during an election to allow parties to target particular voters as election day nears. But identifying individuals who have not voted allows a party to fill out ballots and stuff ballot boxes using the names of folks who have not voted. Or they can harvest those ballots. This information should be considered private. Not voting is a private choice, as private as who you voted for. Courts today, block any attempt to canvas ballots or reveal how people voted. This should include whether or not a person voted. If we win these lawsuits we deprive Democrats of vital information they need to cheat successfully.
We can also sue to force states to clean up their registration rolls. Dead people, people who moved or have not voted in a state in years should be removed to prevent ballots from being cast in their names. We see thousands of dead people voting every election, and thousands more people who vote in multiple states.
Finally, and this one is tougher, we need to eliminate mail-in ballots. What is happening in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, California and other states is horrifying. Whether it is fraud or not, it looks like fraud. Mail-in ballots have created distrust in the system. For that reason alone mail-in ballots should be outlawed, as they have been in other countries. 60% of Americans thought the 2020 election was unfair. I suspect after the fiasco this year that percentage will increase. We do not have democracy if the majority of the population does not trust hw our elections are conducted. We managed to get people to the polls for over 200 years before we came up with mail-in voting. We can do it again. What we have done over the years is make cheating easier, while at the same time made it more difficult to investigation. Even if you believe 2020 was a fair and honest election, do you think it is wise to wait until we have massive fraud before we put in some effective checks and balances? That's like a bank waiting to install a vault until after it is robbed.
