As Election Day 2020 approaches, it would appear that presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden and his party have much to celebrate.Biden leads Donald Trump by an average of eight percentage points in national polling, with some surveys showing Biden ahead of Trump by as many as 14 percentage points.Biden also enjoys huge leads among the Democratic Partys key constituents, including black voters, Latinos and other nonwhites, college-educated white women and younger voters. Polls also show Joe Biden making gains among older white voters, a group that consistently supports Republicans and has been especially loyal to Trump. Biden also leads Trump in key battleground states such as Michigan and Wisconsin.
Snip
One of the primary things the Republicans tested in Georgia would be to see if the news media or others would try to find out just why the lines to vote were so very long. Forty precincts in Atlanta had no voting machines. That creates long lines especially when there are no paper ballots. If the machines break, they are supposed to have backup paper ballots. Of course, there were no paper ballots.
Why were all those people out there in the middle of the COVID-19 virus? Why were they waiting in line for a voting machine? The answer is that millions of Georgians asked for mail-in ballots and then hundreds of thousands of people did not get their ballots and were not told why. The answer is that these voters were purged. Half a million of them! If you are purged, then you do not receive a mail-in ballot. If you do not get your ballot, you cannot mail it back in.
In Georgia and in Ohio, and who knows how many other states those state officials will not tell me what their rules are ballots are no longer being sent to people on the so-called inactive list. That is very strange. Inactive means that you missed the last two elections, in 2016 and 2018. According to federal law it is actually in bold type in the National Voter Registration Act a person cannot lose their right to vote by not voting.

The Carter Centers and the UNs rules require that there be a minimum standard of democratic-voting procedures. They report that the United States does not meet those standards.

They are conditioning the media and the public to ultimately accept another upset victory by the unsinkable MF45. Its malarkey a rendition before the fact.
Question is: what are we doing about it? Do we have a nationwide strategy in place to ensure a legitimate outcome? Or is the party of grifters, like scam artists, one step ahead of us the targets, again?

It may have been 2012 and Romney, but I believe it was 2008 and the look on Roves face told me that fix failed.
