New GOP anti-voting bill may be the most dangerous attack on voting rights ever. It’s a statement that, frankly, is alarming, and deserves a deep dive into the implications of such legislation. The sheer breadth of the proposed changes, if enacted, could fundamentally alter the landscape of American elections. It’s not just about making voting “more secure”; it’s about potentially making it significantly harder for millions of Americans to exercise their constitutional right.

The general sentiment is that the GOP is facing an uphill battle to win elections, and rather than adapt their platform to attract a wider base of voters, they are trying to manipulate the system to ensure their continued power.… Continue reading

If you’re keeping score, consider this: there was a recount in Georgia, twice, after the 2020 election, and Biden actually gained votes.… Continue reading

The author emphasizes the importance of allowing the legal process to run its course to maintain the integrity of the election system.
