Republicans in the battleground states of Michigan and Arizona are paying a high price for their full-throated support of former President Donald Trump and his lie that the 2020 election was stolen from him.

Everyone needs to vote. Period. Doesn't matter which side you're on. If everyone actually in the voter rolls votes in person with ID, there's no room for either side to claim it was stolen or manipulated.

They still will claim fraud regardless. Voting by mail or other methods allowed are available and easier. Just remember to do it.

~~in person with ID~~

No, those kinds of restrictions only exist to disenfranchise voters.

(Not sure why the strikethrough markup isn't working.)

Not everyone can vote in person. I vote by mail because of my job. Voting by mail is legitimate.

And Trump claimed the 2016 and 2020 elections were rigged and stolen before the elections or counting was done. It is a way to for criminals to try to steal elections and cast doubt on our voting process. It is evil.

There's no room for it to be claimed that 2020 was stolen. There never was, but 3 years later, there's overwhelming evidence it was fair. That hasn't stopped it being a major part of the GOP platform.
