It will be interesting to see how this plays out...


...It is now possible to rig elections on an industrial scale: Mass mailed out ballots using dirty voter rolls with vote harvesting allowed and voter verification measures unenforced or dissolved altogether. We would laugh at any third-world country that conducted elections in this manner. While the manufactured COVID hysteria won't be around forever (God-willing), the election shenanigans implemented in 2020 using COVID as a pretext are here to stay.

The Dems will fight tooth and nail to preserve the status quo. To return integrity and reliability to our elections, Reps would need to control the governor's mansion, AG's office, both legislative bodies and state supreme court in every relevant state. Winning legislatures is the most likely outcome, since they are more difficult to rig, but statewide offices will be a challenge. They'll also need to get by the idiotic and/or corrupt Reps in their midst (e.g., Georgia) who are perfectly happy to side with or capitulate to the Dems. I'm not very hopeful about the outlook here.

The best bet, IMO, is the USSC eventually ruling on some of the 2020 constitutional contests, perhaps restoring and buttressing the constitutional order that was violated in the most recent election. I fear that's also unlikely, however, due to the Dems' threat to expand and stack the court. The USSC will likely continue to stick its head in the sand.
