Democrats are worried about winning the 2022 midterm elections after Republican state legislatures reformed 30 election integrity laws in 18 states and additional legislation may come.
CEO of the Stacey Abrams-founded New Georgia Project, Nsé Ufot, told Politico, “If there isn’t a way for us to repeat what happened in November 2020, we’re f—ed.”
Latosha Brown, cofounder of Black Voters Matter, told Politico that “hope is quickly turning into frustration.” She then asked, “When in the hell are those who claim that they are committed to democracy going to show up to protect those that protect democracy?”
Along with the multitude of states that have successfully passed new election integrity measures, such as voting ID. and early voting requirements, more than 400 bills with election integrity provisions have “been introduced in 49 states in the 2021 legislative sessions.”
Other states with pending legislative sessions, such as California, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Maine, still have election integrity measures waiting to be passed.
The Republicans’ successful approach has caused President Joe Biden and his congressional allies to push legislation to federalize state and local elections, putting more power in Washington via wresting control from local communities where accountability is greatest.
But Senate Republicans defeated Biden’s so-called “For the People Act” by a filibuster in June. The defeat has thrown the battle over election integrity back to the states, where “the restrictions advanced by Republicans affect so many facets of voting that Democrats cannot agree on which provisions are the most problematic.”

As I read the first couple of paragraphs, I had to recheck to make sure this wasn’t the Babylon Bee.

Admitting they can’t win without cheating.
One party is pushing for honest elections.
One party fears honest elections.
Nothing to see here. Move along.
At last. A feel-good article this morning
If they can’t cheat, their chances are worsened considerably.
Learn to win on the issues and you won't have to cheat.
Tsk. Tsk. Stacy said a bad word. Shame on her.
“..Admitting they can’t win without cheating....”
If the truth be known, they probably couldn’t have won an election from dog catcher on up to POTUS in the last 25 years or so without cheating.
News Flash to ‘Rats:
Stuffing the ballot box is NOT Democracy...
I did too.
No they’re not.
Using the F word in the headline ranks right up there with using ALL CAP words like BOOM!
The same people who demand that you should not be required to show an ID to vote are the same people who want you to have a PROOF of VACCINATION to go into the grocery store.
I agree and question so many past elections. The system os rigged and both parties knew it. No way Obama won a second term and Biden lost big time.
Lol I thought it was The Bee as well! Good grief - they are admitting that legal and secure elections puts the screws to them! That’s how used they are to the cheating - to them it’s a non issue! Just the normal course of affairs.
I haven’t seen one election law reform enforcing “Election Day”. I haven’t seen one that will stop COVID-hysteria mail-in, or punish poll-workers for “arbitration” and other ballot alteration schemes. Illegals are pouring into the country and being dispersed be the Federal Government, waiting to be “harvested” by Democrats.
It is wishful thinking, at its worst, to think that Democrats are f***ed, in any way.
Translation: “It’s not fair. We can’t cheat!”
Right. As “An honest election?” We Dems are soooooooo screwed.
