The campaign involves a powerful network of Republican lawyers and activist groups, working loosely in concert with the Republican National Committee. Many of the key players were active in Mr. Trump’s attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
But unlike the chaotic and improvised challenge four years ago, the new drive includes a systematic search for any vulnerability in the nation’s patchwork election system.
Mr. Trump’s allies have followed a two-pronged approach: restricting voting for partisan advantage ahead of Election Day and short-circuiting the process of ratifying the winner afterward, if Mr. Trump loses. The latter strategy involves an ambitious — and legally dubious — attempt to reimagine decades of settled law dictating how results are officially certified in the weeks before the transfer of power.
At the heart of the strategy is a drive to convince voters that the election is about to be stolen, even without evidence. Democrats use mail voting, drop boxes and voter registration drives to swing elections, they have argued. And Mr. Trump’s indictments and criminal conviction are a Biden administration gambit to interfere with the election, they claim.
“As things stand right now, there’s zero chance of a free and fair election,” Mike Howell, a project director at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank, said at an event this week. “I’m formally accusing the Biden administration of creating the conditions that most reasonable policymakers and officials cannot in good conscience certify an election.”

So, these NYT clowns can factually state that no attempts by Dims are being carried out, anywhere within the fifty states, to illegally increase Biden's vote count, or to suppress Trump votes? Yeah, right. Pathetic beyond words.
That’s pretty much what specious means. I am just trying to expand my vocabulary. :)
You’ve been here long enough, ignore them. I like to read the enemy propaganda and appreciate you posting them.
Don’t fret E. Most people don’t want to know what is coming.
It’s not a news source. Period.
“Their wide-ranging and methodical effort is laying the groundwork to contest an election that they argue, falsely, is already being rigged against former President Donald J. Trump.”

Then if it isn’t already being rigged, then the NY Slimes shouldn’t have any difficulty in using all of its power and influence to help get the DAVE Act passed, just to eliminate doubts about potential cheating.
Oh, they oppose the SAVE Act? Yeah, thought so.
Here's just one: Biden, an inarticulate and cranky old man of no accomplishment, hid in his basement for months and won more votes than either Obama or President Trump in previous elections; furthermore unlike Biden, both Obama and Trump were and remain immensely popular.
“Unbowed by Jan. 6 Charges” is essentially “our political terror campaign didn’t work.” You may proceed from there.
Does anyone trust The Times?
They already brought in 20 million illegals who have already voted the second they crossed the border, got news for ya they already cheated
Please ignore all of the criticism, and keep posting whatever you like. No one has to read your posts or click through to the subject article if they don’t want to do so.
Doesn't get more iron fisted tyrannical than that.
Thanks.
Or...The Democrat party (NY TIMES is just its mouthpiece) is a specious political organization. Every word it says or prints is either a lie or projection.
Yo, New York Times. That is not a bad thing.
Fair and honest elections are a treat to the democracy. /s
Keep posting NYT. I prefer to know what my opponents are thinking. We are all free to give the source the credit , or lack thereof, which it is due. After all, it’s a free republic.
No, you’re wrong! I’ve been here since the beginning of Free Republic.
One of our main purposes—and has ALWAYS been so—is to watch the DNCMedia and take on their biased stories.
We’re not just an echo chamber of pro-trump news. We’ve got to post what the Left is saying. That is the intelligence we need to gather and dispute it so our side is prepared for their nonsense.
Do you always interject your unwanted opinions into an ongoing conversation over several threads?
You clearly don’t know the backstory here between me and E. So butt out.
See post 39. I have no problem with posting Slimes disinformation.
My snarking at E. is just a continuation of back and forth over several threads. Has nothing to do with this thread.
In any event - I’m done.
