Senate Democrats say they share President Biden’s concern that the results of the 2022 midterm elections may not be legitimate because of restrictive voting laws passed by GOP-controlled state legislatures and the empowerment of state-level officials allied with former President Trump.
But the senators are torn over how hard to push a stolen-election narrative ahead of the November election in which Republicans are expected to make big gains in Congress.
While Democratic lawmakers are worried that Republican state officials are seeking to suppress Democratic votes, some are leery of sounding like Trump, who made predictions of widespread election fraud before the 2020 presidential election and continues to do so on a regular basis.
The key distinction is that Trump hasn’t been able to back up any of his fraud claims in court and they have been dismissed by members of his own party.
Democrats believe there’s plenty of evidence that Republicans are trying to steal future elections and feel bolstered by extensive reporting by CNN, NBC and other media outlets on the state-level machinations of Trump allies.
“I think many of these laws, especially those that end the bipartisan counting of votes, are intended to seat people who lost the election. If Herschel Walker wins in Georgia because all the Fulton County votes got thrown out, that’s not a legitimate election,” said Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.).

There is outrage over GOP suppression of dead and fictional voters.
Democracy itself is threatened when the dead cannot vote.
We truly are in bizzarro land. The Demons are worried about voting law passed by legislation but aren’t worried at all about the executive dictates that occurred in the last election.
Libtards wanting to have their cake and eat it too as usual 🤪
They know that we know they stole 2020. Never forget.
2020 was a stolen election. Never forget the aid and comfort members of the Republican Party gave to resident Biden. Purge and punish any Republican who did this atrocity to America.
The 2020 fraud has to be exposed and rectified or we don’t have a country..period.
Our country is as phony as the fake news until then.
Heck, the Democrats have challenged and refused to accept as legitimate any election that they have lost for the last 20 years, starting with the first Bush election.
They actually had a plan, if Trump won the 2020 election(well, he did, but that’s another matter), to bring their own slate of electors and have Congress declare Biden the President. Oddly enough, this is the thing the Jan 6 commission folks are accusing Trump of having done or wanting to do.
If you want to see what the Dems are up to, always look at what they accuse their opponents of doing.
They stole the house in 2018 too. Below is the democrat plan of action to steal the ‘20 election if their fellow travelers in the GOP hadn’t been so accommodating. Just change the dates to 2022 and we have Transition Integrity Project 2.0.

Please South Dakota, just get rid of Sleepy John Thune.
He makes Pedo Joe look exciting!
If he, and other R senators, had any sense, they would have supported President Trump when he claimed foul.
A peculiar twist as to the motivation, or lack thereof, of Dems to push a rigged election ‘24 narrative. Opening this pandora’s box would require them to accede to investigating the 2000 election.
Pubbie response is simple. “GREAT. We are delighted to open an inquiry into all federal elections in the past 20 years. That will get us back to Obama.”
Take all day to read that. Synopsis please.
There. Fixed it.
Took me 3 minutes. Synopsis above.
Sue, Sue, Sue, Sue. NEVER concede! Take it to the streets. Sue, Sue, Sue. Here’s our stable of federal hack judges.
afraid of being hoisted on their own petard ...

damned it the do, damned it they don’t ...
[pithy summaries, aphorisms are sometimes ...]
‘Rats want their votes and mail-in too.
Elections may not be legitimate because of restrictive voting laws.
So he’s saying the 2020 election was not legitimate right.
They’re ok with demanding to see everyone’s “papers” when it comes to the vaccines.
But it’s the end of democracy if someone has to show an ID to vote. 🙄
Good grief. Yeah, they stole 2018 too.
