If Dems win, there will have been no difficulties. If they lose, it will be voter disenfranchisement, fraud and intimidation, chaos and un-reliable electronic voting machines.

Well, here in Ohio we've already started using the new machines the last election. There was no panic, or blood in the streets. The democrats are unhinged.

The NYT must now believe the Republicans are going to win. So they're setting us up for a challenge to the vote.

No chaos if everyone follows the rules: Republicans vote on Nov 7 and the Dems on Nov 8th.
