Thank you for a straight answer. I completely disagree, but ok.


I just don't believe for one second that Georgia's law looks anything like what was passed if not for the months of yelling by Trump and his people after the election. Maybe they panic and try to add restrictions because the Democrats won the state, but I don't think the law looks anything like what they got. I don't think Florida makes any changes at all, because their election had no allegations of fraud because Trump won the state. But of course DeSantis is thrilled to show off his Trump bona fides now by signing the law. Arizona obviously doesn't try to do the audit they're running now.

To be clear, election integrity was a concern before the election because Trump's team made it a concern, even though they never found evidence. It was a concern after 2016 because Trump's team made it a concern, even though they never found evidence. The logical flow is "politician yells about something with no basis in reality"->"politician's voters get upset"->"other politicians use upset voters to justify new law".
