105. Strateejerie?
One thing that occurs to me about confronting our messed up election process is the fact that it all happens at the county and precinct level and that if you are really going to beat voter fraud you have to beat it at that level, which is a long complex and agonizing process. In 2000 the old folks on the Supreme Court effectively put a stop to that process before it even began.

I'm hoping that our democracy still works, even though it is overloaded with repuglicans in every branch, but there is still the underlying system that works, and maybe a whole bunch of really smart lawyers who know their shit can make it do it's job.

I think a couple of senators standing up and contesting the election and bring the whole thing to a screeching halt would be an incredible test that I would love to see this country pass. Let's show 'em what we got!!!

There's a dance in the old dame yet.
