Learning how many votes they need. They don’t want to have too much attention by way overdoing it.

To use some one Elise's word's “I Have a PHONE and a PEN.”
Now, I wonder whose that could ha been?

“Why is this being reposted? The story is a week old.”

Don’t care. This is the first time I’ve seen it, and I read here several hours a day.

The next four years are a golden opportunity to restore FAIR ELECTIONS in America, as originally designed
Absolutely! If this reform is not done, I have doubts that we can outperform this last historic Republican sweeping election. Nevertheless, the left will come back with a hellbent revenge.
Agreed, with the caveat that the election of Electors to vote for POTUS is not a Federal election.
Article II Section 1:
Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.
Which implies that each State has plenary power to control the “presidential” election within it. If a state legislature wants to select the state’s electors by the flip of a coin, or restrict the voting in the state for POTUS to illegal aliens, there is actually no constitutional recourse.

But as far as voting for Congressman or Senator, that is a different matter. And if a state wants to have the presidential (i.e., elector) election on the same ballot as the Congressional/Senate election . . .
