A lot of what needs to be done is making sure that the Harris win is large enough that you can’t easily claim that a handful of ballots should be tossed and change the outcome. That means:

  • Check your voter registration — part of the Republican strategy has long been invalidating registrations so people can’t vote
  • Volunteer — nothing in the world quite like talking to people.
  • Donate — money is used for everything from ads to voter turnout operations
  • Organize; be prepared to turn out with others in your community to actively object to any effort to ignore your votes

    It will cast doubt on the election process regardless. This is very dangerous rhetoric, and unfortunately there’s about 20% of the country that wants this.

      it’s important that nobody sinks into complacency even if harris’s victory is looking like an absolute blowout towards the end. GOP absolutely WILL do literally everything they can to undermine the election. everything from 2020 plus more

        They tried a coup and they tried some election interference using the courts. Both were miserable failures. Why is every one acting like these clowns will suddenly fail upwards this time?

          The point is not to get complacent. They’ve had four years and the backing of numerous new agencies and billionaires in that time to work on how they can get it right. Don’t they already have Georgia or some shit promising not to certify? Remember how long it took those shithole states to certify in 2020, the corruption.ans intimidation at voting sights? That was all before they knew what they were doing or has time to plan and get on the same page.

          Because they spent the last 4 years infiltrating election groups, running out the honest people, and making sure election deniers are in charge wherever they can get them.

          Last time they were I’ll prepared and stopped by a whole lotta responsible people. Most.of those people have moved away after all the death threats they got over this, and have been replaced by people who are, shall we say, a little less queasy with questionable practices like fraud.

      20% of the country are traitors and Trump put a good chunk of them in office.

      Look at the supreme court. His appointees are going to fuck up our country for decades and there is no political will to deal with it.
