6. then why have GOP been so busy changing state election laws?

Witness Rep Maricopa County Recorder Helen Purcell's cutting voting sites for the presidential preference primary election down from 200 to just 60.

All these new laws passed by GOP-controlled state legislatures & signed by GOP governors mandating that IDs be shown to be able to vote, and only certain types of IDs (like gun permits but not state university student IDs) be allowed.

Florida GOP governor illegally kicking people off the voting rolls--to the poin that even GOP county election officials refused to comply with his directives.

The GOP & the 1%ers actually do want to change things--they want to make the US election process even more undemocratic.
