    The problem is that their vision of “done right” is to block non-whites, non-males, and non-their-kind-of-Christian from voting.

    Letting them have it be their version “done right” means that they get their way forever and trample the rights of other Americans.

      there are insane bigots.

      I do not see evidence that this group is pushing forward a bigoted agenda in deed.

      I am open to being wrong. If you have evidence of it, I want to see.

      I don’t think that a hand count in a state whose election results were called into question last time is a crazy move.

      I think suspicion of a conspiracy to use a hand count to slow the process down to the point that the election is decided by the house is not a good reason to prevent a hand count.

      I feel like I’m missing something critical here, but it doesn’t seem like you want to resolve people’s concerns or build trust because you believe those concerns don’t merit addressing and that it’s not possible to build trust with the people you see as your enemies.

        They’re not explicit, but when you see for example, Rick Jeffares having run for office and never managed to get a single dark-skinned person standing with him, it’s blindingly obvious what’s going on.
