This report reveals that in "eight vital swing states [...] at least 239 election deniers who have signed up to Trump’s 'election integrity' conspiracy theories – including the false claim that the 2020 election was rigged against him – are actively engaged in electoral battles this year."
Among them The Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) identified "102 current members of state and county election boards" who plan to not certify election results. However the "2022 Electoral Count Reform Act has clarified the process of certifying electoral college votes in the presidential race, making it more difficult for trouble to be sowed either at the state level or in Congress."
Nevertheless, the disruptions caused by the election deniers will sow unrest of the kind that led to the Jan. 6 insurrection, this time with the potential to be far worse. Their goal is the destruction of democracy through civil war and they won't stop until they succeed or we thoroughly defeat them time and again.
