Swing state by swing state, former President Donald Trump is trying to get people who tried to overturn the 2020 election chosen to be in charge of the 2024 election.

Trump's Monday endorsement of state Rep. Mark Finchem for Arizona secretary of state is the latest in a series of announcements that has alarmed independent elections experts. Trump has now backed Republicans who supported his lies about the 2020 election for the job of top elections official in three crucial battlegrounds -- Arizona, Michigan and Georgia -- where the current elections chiefs opposed his efforts to reverse his 2020 defeat.

If people who have sought to undermine the 2020 election are running things in 2024, when Trump might be a candidate again, experts and many Democrats fear that attempts to subvert the will of the voters stand a much greater chance of success.

"It is incredibly dangerous to support people for office who do not accept the legitimacy of the 2020 election. It suggests that they might be willing to bend or break the rules when it comes to running elections and counting votes in the future," said Rick Hasen, a professor of law and political science and co-director of the Fair Elections and Free Speech Center at the University of California, Irvine. "Someone who claims falsely that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump lacks credibility and cannot be trusted to run a fair election."

Finchem, who has also promoted QAnon conspiracy theories, has been an especially aggressive promoter of the lies that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump and rife with "rampant" fraud.

Yeah, but to them that is fine. If we do it; it is bad. Understand now? I knew that you did already. 🙂

The Left is freaking out about this. President Trump’s endorsements have a superb track record. Perfect? No. But an extremely high probability of success. And, the Left is very well aware of this fact.

That’s the problem you commie twits. You and your co-conspirators successfully undermined the 2020 election and stole the American peoples confidence with respect to voter integrity. I would certainly hope that none of your ilk are running things in 2024 (or ever) as successfully running a lemonade stand is beyond your capabilities.

It alarms Uniparty loyalists who only want Democrats and Assistant Democrats to get elected.
I think they have been rigging elections for longer than we think.

"I think they have been rigging elections for longer than we think."

Moving progressively from "Voting Day" flipped a switch against "democracy".
