Overturning democracy and replacing it with one-party tyranny. It's happening right now in North Carolina. Coming to a state near you.

On Friday, lawyers for Griffin laid out their case for retroactively disqualifying 65,000 ballots, disenfranchising tens of thousands of registered voters and overturning the election results and Riggs’s victory. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Indiana is actually probably 55/45 r/d, but it’s been so profoundly gerrymandered to ensure super majorities, you’d never know. The constant thrum of abuse eventually takes the fight out of you. We are the cautionary tale.

Is there anything we locals can do about this? I genuinely am overwhelmed by the attacks on all sides and have completely lost my ability to know even where to begin

Common Cause NC has been organizing protests and attempting to inform the voters whose votes are being challenged (https://www.commoncause.org/north-carolina/griffin/)

This one tool is great to share with other NC voters (https://terrymah.github.io/challenge/)

We've had this one struck down multiple times at this point, but they refuse to let it die. Every time a judge tells them no they rejiggwr it and try again because the thought of losing is that hurtful to them.

It's infuriating! There's no words. I keep hearing it's dead and then that they're trying again

The fact that this lawsuit is still going is harrowing. Their approach is simple: it’s only democracy if they win.

This guy is a fucking fraud. I voted in the election in November in North Carolina. When they win, it seems that there is never any voter fraud. When they lose, all they do is bitch and moan and go to the courts.

These were the kids who cried everyone they lost a game in school.

Take our votes back. We fucking dare you.

There's a reason conservatives and Republicans love Victor Orban: the want America to look like Hungary, in that it is a democracy on paper but a single party autocracy in practice

And there is no stopping it. Evil has already won and they will kill everyone before they are satisfied.
