In Arizona, Michigan and Nevada, Republicans are seeking to force election officials to remove voters from the rolls, despite federal law limiting such actions in the months preceding an election.

That's not "election challenges", that's just blatant voter disenfranchisement and cheating.

And the worst part is, it'll get challenged like all their gerrymandered maps but probably be allowed to stand since it's "too close to election day" or some other dubious horseshit.

Or they want it in front of the Supreme Court

God fuck it feels like the only guarantee this election is that there will be a civil war no matter the results

GOP is really determined to keep showing their ass over and over and over. We're not going to forget these past few years GOP, and we're not going to forgive them either. I don't want to hear any "not all Republicans" bullshit either - unless you are a Republican who has been writing continuously to your representatives since 2016 telling them they are turning the party into a facist, authoritarian, laughingstock, you are culpable too.

I mean, writing is all well and good, but if you've voted Republican since 2016 you're a piece of shit no matter how much you complained about it.

The only good "Republicans" are, functionally, former ones.
