In reply to the discussion: New Red State Evil Plot: Going Authoritarian & Ditching Democracy [View all]CrispyQ
(36,424 posts)29. Has Democratic party leadership spoken out against what's going on in AZ?
Is there any outrage or are we just ignoring it cuz we think talking about it will legitimize it? Aren't we concerned that the GOP is setting precedent to pull these kinds of stunts in the future? Yes, it's five months after the election this time, but what about next time? What do we do when they demand to re-count the votes the day after the election?
