minority votes, I would have thought this would be a straightforward answer.

If the D candidate wins, it was free and fair. If the R candidate wins, it was not

We are not going to know till the results come in on election night

to be reelected in 2026?
At the rate that Trump is moving now we will be lucky to have any elections in 2026.

about all the lawlessness, as if they are not worried about having to win re-election. When they should be worried as hell about winning their re-elections. I’m about 50-50 on this right now still waiting to see how it all plays out, but it’s not a good feeling. Hoping they are just still waiting on Krasnov’s numbers to sink even lower to start speaking up, rather than do they already know something we don’t know(?).
