I’ve done a bit of writing over the past couple of years about election integrity issues, election fraud, voter suppression and the "gaming the system from the inside" that has been the republican party’s modus operandi since 2000 when it comes to stealing elections in various forms.

And right on cue - even since the anti-voter voter ID laws that were recently passed in Indiana (and almost passed in Missouri), we are seeing, as my good buddy dday is referring to as the "new battleground" - that big bad boogyman of "voter fraud".

Never mind the fact that this is (1) a false argument and (2) false in the small issue of fact, as I wrote a few months back:
