After millions of Virginians showed up and voted to redraw the state’s congressional maps, a move that could give Democrats a path to winning ten of Virginia’s eleven seats, the President of the United States posted, “A RIGGED ELECTION TOOK PLACE LAST NIGHT IN THE GREAT COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA!” No evidence.
People need to be watching closely on all the many fronts on which Trump (and his smarter minions) are working to undermine a fair election in November. He is an f'ing moron, as his first Secretary of State said, but he is not a mural dyslexic: he can read the writing on the wall. And he is doing everything he can to avoid his electoral fate. None of what he is doing is of course legal or ethical, but those terms mean nothing to Trump.
I have always told my grown children that the things they want don’t just happen. They don’t just fall into place just because you dream it or want it to. It takes planning. It takes effort. It takes the desire to see that dream through. Democracy doesn’t just happen either. Just because we are the land of the free and the home of the brave… Just because we are Americans… Just because we are unique in so many ways does not mean that during this crucial and pivotal moment things will work out. We cannot be so conceited or blind to know that even as Americans, we have to step up at every moment our freedoms and democracy are threatened. We have to step out of line every time basic decency is gaslighted. The threat of this regime is very real, whether it’s touched you personally or not. The dream of resistance and good trouble doesn’t just happen. It takes effort. From everyone.
Every voting place in every city should insure that LOCAL police and protection is at the site and there on voting day to keep ICE or other intruders away from messing with our freedom. Can it be done? Why not? It's one day of OUR army againt T's corruption, a day for changing the world.

Bottom line is we need to be too big to fail.

Would it also be advisable to have democratic voters flood the areas outside voting centers to monitor any bad behavior.
Absolutely! Brilliant idea!
Please keep posting, please keep fighting. You're helping me to get up in the morning.
