The Election Heist Is Coming - Democrats have about ninety days to fight back.

Rick Wilson knows what he's talking about. He used to be one of them.

His assignment for Democrats -

"Register voters like it’s existential, because it is. Bank early votes like the polls might not be open on Election Day, because in some counties, functionally, they might not be. Fund the lawyers, protect the election workers, prosecute the criminals, and run up the score in every district, everywhere, including the ones the smart-money consultants wrote off.

A political war is coming this fall. Not a metaphor, not hype, an actual contest over whether elections in this country still decide who holds power. The other side has already mobilized. They have the Court, the money, the federal agencies, and the machines.

You have the numbers. You have the law. And you have about ninety days.

Win so big the fuckers can’t cheat."

I for one, will never make peace with the statistical oddity that threw all seven swing states in Trump's favor. Anyone who thinks that the Cons don't have a multilayered plan to steal the vote is - to be blunt - being willfully stupid. I hope that the smart people on our side have a counter-plan in place that is more sophisticated than running to a judge one minute before a poll closes and begging them to keep the polls open for another 15 minutes - only to have it overruled by some hack Republican state Supreme Court. Sorry to be pessimistic - I just feel like our side is perpetually Charlie Brown and the Cons are Lucy (sorry for the dated reference) and we never learn.
