They have a plan to manipulate or steal the election.
They know that if Democrats hold the Presidency and possibly congress it is game over for many of them.
They will "win" at any cost to avoid jail.
I hope our FBI, CIA, Homeland Security etc.. have all the bases covered to prevent a "win" for the con party.
In my opinion the only way for the Democrats to win is overwhelming voter turnout for an overwhelming BLUE WAVE that cannot be overcome under any circumstances.
