Let me get this straight. This law aims to have the administrators administrate and law enforcment enforce the law. Yeah, sounds devious.

Republicans can running around shouting that the sky is falling all they want, but what they haven’t shown is voter fraud. Well if you discount those folks from the Villages in Fl…they still haven’t found/showed where the fraud happened. And fraud so large to as to affect an election’s outcome.

I think the “thinking” here is that Republicans are accusing everyone who is not a Republican is using their playbook". Isn’t there something about every accusation is an admission?

They are always projecting. It’s good, because we can keep track of what they are up to. BTW, have you googled “Project 2025”?

Exactly, it is remarkable just how few real examples that there are. My response to someone espousing this fraud nonsense is: show me one example.
I wouldn’t put it past them to encourage it (fraud) among their own just so they might actually have some examples.

“If there’s a claim of fraud, we want to know what those claims are."

I take it “because we lost” and “I heard it on Fox” no longer qualify as valid claims of fraud. And taking away the county board of canvassers ability to “investigate” claims of fraud is unconscionable because it undermines the GOP’s success in stacking those boards with dedicated operatives.

Republicans live in the Upside down. A horrific landscape of murky lies and monsters…thus it’s easy for them to mislead their minions to believe:
Election laws made by Repubs = Perfection
Election laws made by Democrats = Perfidy

Truly…Stranger Things.

Well in the handful of incidents of voter fraud that have been exposed, the culprits were mostly Republicans.
I’m still pissed off about the woman in TX who cast a provisional ballot because she didn’t know that she couldn’t vote. SHE CAST A PROISIONAL BALLOT! Isn’t that why there are provisional ballots?

Not sure what ‘right wing media’ means anymore when all of the media is directed by people who can buy boats with their fresh Uncle Donny tax cuts.

Actually, what they have shown is that when fraud occurs, it’s overwhelming committed by voters who are registered as Republicans.

The only case I can recall where fraud was (arguably) committed by a registered Democratic voter involved that woman who cast a provisional ballot while on probation in Texas because local (Republican) voting officials told her she could vote.

They’ve also shown that when fraud has occurred, it has never been at a level that could possibly change the election results.
