The election will be a fiasco

Harris L 2020 election September 23, 2020September 23, 2020 1 Minute

Neither side will accept a loss.

Democrats will blame voter suppression, foreign interference and whatever Barr/courts/Republican legislatures do.

Republicans will blame illegal votes and mail in vote fraud.

There’s no limit to what Republicans will do to steal the election. I don’t think Trump is even trying to win the popular vote. He’s counting on Republicans in the legislatures, courts and Congress to steal the election if he doesn’t win the Electoral College vote.

The Trump campaign is discussing plans to ask state representatives to set aside the election results in their state and select Trump electors *even if Trump loses the vote in their state.*

That would be the death of American democracy. That is not an overstatement. It’s a fact. https://t.co/U28TTML396

I wonder how many people are ready for just how bad the next six weeks plus are going to be. This is going to be the most dangerous election since 1860, with substantial odds that America as we know it will be damaged or even destroyed 1/

Trump tells reporters he wants a replacement for RBG quickly as he believes 2020 election will end up going to SCOTUS: “Yes, I think it’s very important. I think this will end up in the Supreme Court and I think it’s very important that we have nine justices."

Trump is laying the ground work to steal the election by working with GOP state legislatures to appoint electors that will vote for Trump irrespective of their state's popular vote. This is a nightmare!https://t.co/Ug52jET4NW

"We should not think of the litigation and the wild claims of voter fraud as separate from one another. Instead, they are part of a play to grab power if the election is close enough." https://t.co/KPAGTeemRC

"At 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on election night, millions of ads could show up on Facebook saying something along the lines of, 'We won—Donald Trump is president for four more years! MAGA!'—even if mail-in ballots haven't been fully counted." https://t.co/INqmoeK0W2

Trump won’t say if he would commit to a peaceful transition of power. “We are going to have to see what happens.”
