    In Georgia, those local boards have been a persistent source of long lines at polling places. Are Republicans supposed to never do anything about that?https://twitter.com/DamonLinker/status/1406277705570701315 …

    This — and not states making it marginally more difficult to vote in comparison to the outlier pandemic election of 2020 — is the real election threat going forward.

        'what, are we supposed to just never take over the local boards so we can declare our guy the de facto winner?'

        In politics, establishing a scapegoat is always preferable to solving a problem

        And if you can do both; scapegoat & use a problem to your advantage, that is the GOP pot of gold!

        Ah yes. The time-honored tradition of Republicans taking over election boards to ensure that it’s easier for POC to vote.

        Sounds like a good idea. Except for the fact that the head of the Republican Party doesn’t think Democrats can legitimately win elections & half the party’s voters think GOP officials who certified the last election for Biden should be replaced by those who would have stopped it.

        In other words, your response is simply "if Republicans do it, it must be bad."

        Look, how were people supposed to react when the voting law dumped the power of the SecState that fought for the election and the campaign's supporters banged on about fighting against imaginary fraud? And with Arizona in the mix, what are people supposed to think?

        Your premise is that all solutions are equal. For a right handed hitter whose spilts show they hit oppo all the time and the manager shifts everyone to the right side of the field, when critiqued they retort are we never supposed to do anything about the right side of the field?

        I’m sure GOP overseers are quite invested in reducing long voting lines in urban areas.

        The Georgia law specifically addresses long lines by mandating either additional voting machines or additional precincts in locations where the line grew to longer than 1 hour.
