      • Gerrymandering

      • Fake electors

      • Being suspiciously cozy with the business owners of voting machine companies

      • Voter intimidation by posting ICE/CBP at polls

      • Voter intimidation by stochastic terrorism using their most rabid followers

      • Closing polling places in liberal areas to cause longer lines at the few remaining locations

      • New voter ID laws, including that one that could disenfranchise anyone who has ever changed their name (especially married women and trans people)

      • Trying to make voting by mail illegal

      • Trying to invalidate mail-in votes by any means possible

      • Calling election officials and asking them to “”“find”“” just enough votes to change the outcome

      • Trying to cancel the election entirely due to some “emergency” bullshit (despite the US never having canceled a single election in its entire history, including during the Civil War)

      • Chanting to stop the count when they’re ahead, and chanting to keep counting when they’re behind

      • Filing dozens of (failed) court cases in attempts to overturn election results

      …to name a few.

      Maybe I was being hyperbolic with “30”. Maybe. We’re at 14 now. I bet if you dig deep enough, you can find at least 30 ways the GOP is trying to rig elections.

        • Gerrymandering doesn’t help with national elections like the presidential election

        • Fake electors is legit, but didn’t get used

        • Suspicion isn’t evidence

        • ICE wasn’t at the polls for 2024 that I’m aware of

        I don’t feel the need to continue as your list seems mostly speculative of future elections and not relevant to the 2024 election.

        Edit: I do want to be clear that most of these are very valid concerns for future elections. Just not when discussing Harris losing.
