“regardless of how much they cheat”
Well, they can’t cheat everywhere, so yes, the general trend should still deliver a win to the GOP regardless of cheating.
However, the scale of their cheating was still very extensive in 2020. Not just the usual local Dems “putting their finger on the scale”, but coordinating operations across many states, which obviously required significant funding and months of planning, and collusion from not only their party, but also Republicans and the media too.
If they repeat that, they certainly could flip a great many contests to Democrats. The only question is whether they want to risk exposing themselves by flipping enough seats to retain majorities. Considering how successful their censorship campaigns have been, and how disinterested Congress and the courts have been about cheating, I don’t really see any reason why they wouldn’t cheat just as hard and probably even harder than in 2020. There doesn’t seem to be any real risk or repercussions for them, so why wouldn’t they?
the local dems have money and are throwing parties
Have you been thinking to yourself, “Gee, I can’t remember the last time I’ve hung out eating a plate full of assorted foods with a bunch of friendly local progressives?” Fear not! The Dem’s Potluck is only a week away! You don’t have to be a registered Democrat to attend—and if you don’t feel like cooking, no problem! Just bring yourself—and a friend if you can! Don’t have friends? We can provide those too!

they are recruiting. They own the local paper and are recruiting heavily for the polls.
