    The medium term goal is to get rid of voting entirely

    bush 2 was the revelation. They don’t even need to gerrymander to manipulate the electoral college if they can just get it in front of a court that will side with them. trump was openly counting on that but couldn’t even run a close enough race to take it to the courts. And that is why they are continuing to do everything they legally can get away with to insist on “election fraud” and the like. Same with insisting “the United States is not a democracy, it is a republic”.

    And because so many Democrats continue to rather re-litigate Bernie 2016 rather than focus on local elections? It is just a matter of time.
