Trump files first election lawsuit in chilling sign of what’s to come
The election fraud lawsuits have started again.
The election fraud lawsuits have started again.

But Trump chose to stoke the flames Wednesday morning, posting on Truth Social that "Pennsylvania is cheating, and getting caught, at large scale levels rarely seen before."
"Law enforcement must act, NOW!" he added.
Bucks County officials confirmed to NBC Philadelphia that they had been notified of the lawsuit, but did not provide further comment. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, meanwhile, shot back at the Republican presidential nominee, highlighting that Trump and his allies have spent the last four years actively corroding public trust in U.S. elections---and that they are currently warming up their second conspiracy to undermine the 2024 election results.

From The Guardian:
The queues for late mail ballots were a result of Pennsylvania not having an early on-site voting system at designated spots, as is the case in some other states. Instead, voters can apply for ballots on demand at election offices before filling them out and submitting them on the spot, a procedure that takes about 10 minutes.
The flood of late applicants overwhelmed electoral workers in Bucks county’s administration building in Doylestown, leading to a long queue, which was cut off at about 2.45pm on Tuesday
I went to drop off my ballot on Saturday and when I got there, not to the main office in Doylestown, but one of the smaller remote offices, and there was a huge line all the way across the front of the building and I was wondering what the heck was going on.
As I was getting to the end of the line, a person came over and asked if I already had my ballot, and when they saw it, they said I could go right in and drop it off. There was only one couple ahead of me there.
I had been wondering what the line was for, and now that makes sense. The Republicans had made the mail in ballot more complicated than necessary during COVID, so now they seem to feel it biting them as their potential supporters have been screwed by it.
“Democrat election officials are seeing our numbers. They’re seeing our turnout. They are seeing us breaking early vote records across Pennsylvania,” he said. “They are terrified. And they want to stop our momentum. We are not going to let them suppress our votes.”
Pennsylvania does not start counting votes before election day. Nobody has any clue as to who is voting for whom.
They've broken the system and want to say "look at this broken system, we can't trust it!" To me that just shows we can't trust you!
I really hope Pennsylvanians do the right thing. These people need to be stopped.

This is the shit that is INFURIATING to me... They broke the system thinking it would hurt Democrats but now that it's affecting them they just blame Democrats which also helps them in the end... God I hate these people so much
Yup, same nonsense as when they sabotage the Post Office and talk about how that doesn't work. The votes against immigration reform and then the yelling about that not working. Won't cut spending or raise taxes but complain about deficit spending.
They want you to want to throw out our current system so they can replace it. That's why it's important to understand the right people to be mad at. If you get mad at anyone other than them themselves, they win.
The other side of this coin which drives me nuts is when the GOP representatives who vote against things like the Infrastructure Act then claim credit for the money and projects being done in their districts. Bitch, you can't vote against something then take credit for it when it benefits you! Two faced fuckers, every single one of them
Oh totally, it's like, we got your actual vote right here!

This has been their process for... ever. They cut funding to government agencies (eg. FEMA), then when said agency has a hard time doing their job. they point a scream that the agency can't do it's job and should therefore have it's funding cut. Rinse, lather, repeat. And right wing voters fall for the sham every 👏 single 👏 time 👏.
They're anti-education for a reason...
