There is no crisis short of the dissolution of the United States of America that would cause states to cancel their elections. I will be working the polls in March and November, hope to see you all there. Better yet, sign up to work the polls as well.
Nobody who claims “elections will be canceled” has ever worked an election, you can bet on that.
I agree. Voter suppression has always happened in the USA. We fight it.
It’s important to be specific about threat assessment so we know how to defend against it. A vague “we won’t have midterms” isn’t helpful.
They have been and will continue to be trying to gain access to states’ voter rolls. They will try to unregister people. They will attempt to gerrymander in their favor. There will probably be ICE and other federal agents at some polling locations.
Furthermore these are all things that are already happening. There won’t be some villainous master stroke at the final hour. The real threats are here now and there are actionable responses to them, but resorting yourself to doom is allowing yourself to give up entirely.
they aren’t trying though, they are doing it in the open? they just barred trans people in Tennessee from voting. by having voter ID and revoking all trans people driving licences they practically disenfranchised a whole demographic. this election will be nasty.

I’m not saying he’ll cancel them, but there will definitely be some interference, besides all the voter suppression that’s happening already.
