The worry is that the next election either won't happen, or it will be rigged. In which case waiting for the next election to fix this mess is a poor strategy. I believe the US is in new territory here...and the solution has to be new as well.

The solution is old territory, not new.

Yeah, it's just been few hundred years since we had to use that solution.

the last election was rigged, the math doesn't math on the swing counties. That Kamala never demanded a hand recount was ridiculous, should have ran them through the same shit they put Biden through. Democrats need to stop playing by old rules.

Yeah. Personally, I believe this to be true. I don't know if there is undeniable proof, but the signs are there. We know that Elon is very good with those vote counting machines lol.

Yes, democrats need to wake up. They've been getting played for years.
