Politicians and election officials DO NOT have the right to change election law just because they feel it’s necessary – even in the wake of a national emergency like COVID-19.
California judge rules Gov. Gavin Newsom overstepped authority with mail ballot order
What about all of the politicians and state election officials who arbitrarily decided that they could extend the dates for receiving mail-in ballots, skip signature verification procedures, or ignore postmark requirements in violation of state or local voting laws? What if all of those ballots are invalidated – how would the election turn out then?
Even if Trump cannot possibly win the election with his ongoing efforts, the legal challenges he is making are important. If we cannot stop these arbitrary election rule changes by partisan officials then we will never again have a free and fair election in America. These challenges are of particular importance in Georgia, as it will soon be the site of election runoffs to determine control of the Senate.
You go, girl!
