Highlights: Republican officials in key battleground states are moving to assert more control over elections ahead of 2024 — efforts that could disrupt preparations already underway for the presidential contest.

Recently, Republican lawmakers have:

-Tried to oust Wisconsin’s elections chief after years of empowering baseless conspiracies about the 2020 election.

-Remade election boards in North Carolina in a way that could increase stalemates and imperil expansive access to early voting.

-Dismantled the election office in Texas’ largest county after a series of problems there.

Election watchdog groups warn that the moves threaten to further tear down public confidence in a system that has been relentlessly attacked since 2020.

    If you can’t win, cheat. Anything to ensure they can rule rather than govern.

      When lying, cheating and stealing didn’t work for Trump they naturally progressed to killing.
