16. Since the 2020 election a shift at the state level has occurred.

Georgia has a governor who sometimes respects electoral prescident (voters suppression not withstanding). Kemp is no fan of inmate P01135809. Democrats won Georgia in 2020 (by the famous 11,779 votes) and also won THREE senate races in the past eight years.

Arizona and Pennsylvania have Democratic governors.

Michigan now has a state trifecta.

Wisconsin has a liberal majority (unless they impeach) on the Supreme Court.

The corrupt infrastructure used in 2020 is not nearly as strong in the swing states.
