What's this?

That was before the new law "fixed" those "problems."

For example, the responsible Republican Secretary of State, Raffensperger, was demoted by the new law from Chairman of the state elections board to non-voting member of the board because he refused to overturn the election.

I remain hopeful that Republicans won't abuse the power they gave themselves with the new law - because I would hope they would be able to foresee just how badly it could backfire on them if they do - but then again, if/when they're desperate, and given that they just gerrymandered 60-40 Republicans in a state that elected a Democratic President and 2 Democratic Senators, I absolutely would not put it past them to do whatever they can to hold on to power.
