I don't see a problem with this

Lawsuits against any White Nationalist Party officials who unfairly toss out election results where they aren't winning - Not just lawsuits to right that wrong, but individual lawsuits that will destroy those officials and leave them homeless and destitute. No one has challenged these goobers with any possible consequences of violating the rights of voters. These are the same people who suppress the vote with ads and billboards in "certain" neighborhoods telling voters that even honest mistakes on ballots are punishable under the law. It's time to turn up the heat and turn the tables on these cons. It's time to indicate that they don't in fact have a privilege card that allows them to play by their own rules. PLEASE. Let's scare the living shit out of these people.

But yes, there needs to be consequences for overturning valid election results.

Tough talk will go a longer way than fretting and setting up Senate votes that will knowingly fail. When you threaten someone by going after everything they own when they know they're in the wrong, it'll make them think twice.

There's no pressure to which they are susceptible. There are so many goobers in their respective states that they are dug in on the goober agenda. if they were threatened in any way, it would be easier for them to jump parties than fall in line. They are a lost cause. But that means we should work harder to elect more Democrats in every election in every place at every level.
