Fraud-believing GOP voters could help McAuliffe on Tuesday

Donald Trump has said several times that his followers should not vote because the elections are rigged something.

I don't know how many Republicans will follow that advice, but their cult leader has spoken. Most Republicans will show up to vote,. But the question is, how many will stay home because of the false belief that voting machines flip votes, or mystery trucks still votes etc.
I have confidence in that enough stupid Republicans exist to boycott themselves.

Some poll they were quoting said that 96% of Republicans and 70% of Democrats were enthused to vote in 2022. The point is that if Republicans believed their own bullshit, they wouldn't be enthusiastic about voting.

Instead, it's all about deligitimizing Democrats.
