If you're worried, understand this: high turnout stops all chicanery

If the turnout is high, Trump loses so big that it would be impossible for any chicanery to over turn the results. Trump has never, ever been above 50% approval during his tenure in office. The public hates him. Every single poll taken since March 2019 shows him behind Biden except for 5 which showed him either tied or 1 point ahead.

Trump is struggling in right leaning Iowa. The Joni-Ernst-Chuck-Grassley-Kim-Reynolds Iowa. If a Republican is not ahead by at least 5 points in Iowa, he's done in the other midwest swing states. The same is true for GA and TX.

Stop worrying and turnout.

It could happen. Biden has already won twice here and we are in play.

Before they are counted - but that is a Hail Satan tactic (vs. Hail Mary) that wouldn’t go unpunished.

If the support for Biden is overwhelming, the amount of ballots they would have to go after will be so unreasonable, it will never fly.

mail in ballots "fraud" once they turn the election his way. Most republicans plan on voting in person so their votes will show up on election day.
