Tennessee voter suppression

BREAKING: Tennessee Court rules that voters in Shelby County must be permitted to fix voter registration issues at polling place & cast regular ballots. County must also provide updates on number of people with pending/deficient applications & must notify applicants immediately.

More concerns about Republicans accepting 2018 election results if they lose

I am very concerned (and have said this before) that neither side will accept the election results if they lose, especially if the House total is very close. The big problem is the Republicans. They are suppressing votes that are probably Democratic while making fantastic claims about voter fraud. Trump is back to falsely claiming illegal immigrants are voting (like he did in 2016).

Democrats have valid concerns about voter suppression. Republicans aren’t even hiding what they are doing in Georgia and North Dakota. What if Abrams (D) loses the Georgia governor’s race by 1%? Can we believe the election was fair? I won’t.

Now, we knew about Russian meddling. I am sure this is to help Trump though he would claim otherwise. Russia wouldn’t continue to interfere in our elections if they didn’t think they were getting results for their efforts.

A criminal complaint filed Friday charges a Russian national, employed by a firm linked to Vladimir Putin and Russian intelligence, with helping direct interference in the 2018 midterm elections, writes @natashabertrand: https://t.co/KurPsAKVR0

— The Atlantic (@TheAtlantic) October 20, 2018

On the other side, Trump is throwing voter fraud out there just like he did in 2016. This is nonsense – there are very few instances of actual voter fraud.

Look at what Paul Krugman said:

If Democrats don't at least take the House, God help us. But even if they do, we'll be facing a nightmarish political scene. Republicans will claim that the election was stolen, and deny the majority's legitimacy 1/ pic.twitter.com/M21pkFiIOw

— Paul Krugman (@paulkrugman) October 21, 2018

They'll also probably abuse executive power in many other ways. And they'll use claims of voter fraud to justify their disregard of the law and Constitution. If you don't think this is going to happen, you haven't been paying attention 3/

In this interview with Carl Bernstein, at around the 4:00 mark, Bernstein says he has talked to White House staffers who said people are looking into legal challenges of the election results if they are close and declaring the election is illegitimate.

"We have had presidents in the past who have lied … but what we have never had is a President of the United States who uses lying and untruth as a basic method to promote his policies," says @CarlBernstein pic.twitter.com/dL09dVsYMF

— Reliable Sources (@ReliableSources) October 21, 2018

This has more on what Bernstein said. From his comments quoted in the article:

“I talked to people in touch with the White House on Friday who believe that, if the congressional midterms are very close and the Democrats were to win by five or seven seats, that Trump is already talking about how to throw legal challenges into the courts, sow confusion, declare a victory actually, and say that the election’s been illegitimate — that is really under discussion in the White House,” Bernstein said…”

Republicans even claim illegal aliens are going to vote (and for Democrats, of course)!
