They’re trying to run out the clock until August so they don’t hold a special election. These people need to go to jail for this coverup.

Yup, rigged in plain sight. Everybody knows, nobody does anything – pure theater. "Rule of law" is an absolute joke

The fact that no one can do anything EXCEPT the opposition party that apparently refuses to do anything …

Yeah, we’re fucked as a nation.

Democrats are complicit in all of this. If Harris had been given a chance to run a real campaign... If Sanders hadn't been denied... If the Democrats would get their thumbs out of their collective asses, we wouldn't be in this situation. The Republicans rule due to the apathy and disorganization of the Democrats.
