A lot of what needs to be done is making sure that the Harris win is large enough that you can’t easily claim that a handful of ballots should be tossed and change the outcome. That means:

  • Check your voter registration — part of the Republican strategy has long been invalidating registrations so people can’t vote
  • Volunteer — nothing in the world quite like talking to people.
  • Donate — money is used for everything from ads to voter turnout operations
  • Organize; be prepared to turn out with others in your community to actively object to any effort to ignore your votes

    This isn’t an if it ain’t broke moment. I really do think people overestimate what these people are capable of doing. Yea they can spend an afternoon having a temper tantrum but can they really change a government, which would require a sustained attack against a professional military?l

      Why would the military be involved in certifying an election?

        In protecting from any real attempt to take control through physical means. Forcing Congress to relocate would be egregious but it wouldn’t stop Congress from functioning.
