I don't put anything beyond Trump, Barr and McConnell

They didn't undertake all these atrocities leading to election season without saving the worst for last.

Biden needs to make a preemptive strike early in the first debate, to shift public awareness toward what Trump and Barr are scheming.

. . . systematic disenfranchisement in "certain areas."

Don't get too excited about the current leads in various states. It is not enough. Polls don't account for systematic disenfranchisement. Couple this with traitorous decisions like Bush v. Gore and we are actually in serious trouble.

Even more critical than funding candidates is funding efforts to ensure adequate resources are allocated EVERYWHERE to handle high turnout. Funding efforts to enable people to "cure" errors in mail in ballots that are disqualified (only 19 states allow for this). Funding efforts to curb the efforts to reject ballots for insignificant errors. There are so many fronts.
