Trump’s Attacks on Early Voting May Have Hurt Republicans in the Midterms Story by Ryan Teague Beckwith (Bloomberg) -- Donald Trump’s ongoing attacks on expanding access to voting hampered Republican turnout efforts in the midterm elections, potentially costing the GOP in key states like Arizona, Nevada and Pennsylvania. As Trump announced his third presidential campaign earlier this week, he finished with a promise to end the voting practices that were made more available during the pandemic, such as mail-in ballots and longer early voting periods, part of his false narrative that widespread fraud cost him re-election in 2020. He said he would demand the US adopt “same-day voting,” in an effort to “do whatever it takes to bring back honesty, confidence, and trust in our elections.” His disdain for early and mail voting trickled down to Republican candidates and voters, who focused more on Election Day voting. That left the GOP dramatically more reliant on supporters showing up on Election Day, while Democrats banked votes from their most stalwart supporters during early voting periods.

There is one Election Day, period. That's the law and it's illegal to have early voting. And, we won't change!

According to 2 U.S. Code § 7: "The Tuesday next after the 1st Monday in November, in every even numbered year, is established as the day for the election, in each of the States and Territories of the United States, of Representatives and Delegates to the Congress."
What part of that federal statute is unclear?

I can understand why Trump doesn’t want voting on Saturday is because more people can come out to vote. Steve, our boy Trump can’t win if the turnout is high. Don’t tell nobody OK!!!

I think the reason folk shouldn't vote on the Saturday after Thanksgiving is so the election workers can have a long weekend to relax like everyone else does. I'm sure YOU won't be working over the Thanksgiving weekend Ron, least of all aiding the unwashed masses to vote.

OK! That too, as long as the voter turnout is low because we want Trump to win.

Ron, let's return to the subject of this blog. Okay!
According to 2 U.S. Code § 7: "The Tuesday next after the 1st Monday in November, in every even numbered year, is established as the day for the election, in each of the States and Territories of the United States, of Representatives and Delegates to the Congress."

Those poll workers are faithful and dedicated to the rule of election law, that is the reason why you can’t find any evidence voter rigging anywhere since Trump took office and beyond but yet, you still believe that the 2020 Presidential Election was stolen from Trump, now don’t you?

Yes Ron, the 2020 election was stolen, time cannot change that. Now you are still trying to steal elections with your illegal "expanded" voting, including the 2022 midterm elections, including this Georgia "runofff" election. The Republicans have a conundrum. We aren't going to stop our legal voting (i.e. same day voting)) but you insist on continuing your ILLEGAL voting (i.e. "expanded" voting.) But you're paying the price and that price is fear and distrust of your neighbors. Don't expect it to go away as long as you persist in your evil ways, like this national Georgia runoff on next Saturday, among others.

Steve, how can one steal an election by adding extra a day to vote, Steve?
