Reminder that the ACA (Obamacare) got passed by the senate by the vote of a stolen seat (Pat, MN), that a gubernatorial election in WA was stolen, and that boomers love to joke about the Kennedy - Nixon election. It's not the cheating that's new.

Every one of those was a trail run / working up the courage to do more. Single states or districts each with a plausible claim to have been the work independent actors. Multiple state pauses (coordination) followed by massively blatant "fortification" is a huge escalation.

Enough time passed from Nixon to W that they'd lost the magic and had to learn it again?

The Brooks Brothers riot plus mixed (R) / (D) government at the time. Bush was part of the machine so his supporters were allowed to do it. Who really knows what the actual voting looks like in any state with (D) party controlling the vote counting.
