GOP operatives are sending out clear signals about the next attack on democracy

1. Good read. The problem for the Republicans is how many people voted.

We have the best election we’ve ever had I terms of accuracy, timely results, and all with unprecedented logistics required to pull it off. Excellent work done by registrars and the volunteers across the country.

THIS is disturbing. I was not aware of this or that it was happening so rapidly.

The Thursday legislative hearing was one of 14 that are slated in Pennsylvania to review voting laws and administrative rules that were in effect during the 2020 election. A separate GOP-sponsored proposal would create districts for electing state supreme court judges. If put into effect, it could become a judicial gerrymander to recast Pennsylvania's appellate courts—including the state's supreme court.

These steps and others, such as Republicans in Wisconsin (and Pennsylvania) talking about changing the way their states choose presidential electors, or Georgia possibly turning the secretary of state from an elective to an appointed office filled by the legislature, seek to change the laws so Republicans can win elections, Daley said.

"Republicans talk a lot about following the rule of law, but what they are trying to do is change the law to make it make it easier to do in 2024 what they were unable to do in 2020," he said.
