Very good reminder as you stare at the map

While we wait for the results of the Election, there may be mirages and shifts along the way. But we won’t know the full result until election administrators can finish processing, validating, and counting ballots. Here's what we might expect in a few key states:

Election deniers are laying the groundwork to try to overturn election results they don’t like. While they may not succeed their attempts are dangerous, @emilize explains. Watch and share. https://t.co/hmZj0Fico5

WATCH: @IanBassin on how autocrats exploit "anticipatory obedience" to silence critics and hold onto power, and how the pro-democracy coalition can help keep the opposition on the playing field.

BREAKING: Despite clear facts and law, SCOTUS overturned two carefully reasoned federal court rulings in our lawsuit challenging Virginia’s illegal voter-purge program w/o explaining their decision. Bottom line: We know this program removes eligible voters.

"They're spreading as many lies as they can and picking the ones that will catch on." @emilize spoke with @USAToday about the election denier strategy behind the 100+ zombie lawsuits about ballot access that are spreading unfounded claims of fraud. https://t.co/9gEACxVkYl

NEW: Advantaging Authoritarianism: How the U.S. electoral system favors extremism. First published in 2022, an updated report on how our “electoral system is tilting the playing field of our democracy, and in doing so abetting those who would do it harm.” Read the report:

Lies about ineligible voters. 100+ meritless lawsuits. Threats to certification. There is calculation to the chaos: deceive, disrupt, deny.

Ok, we need to get something straight because I’m seeing it everywhere: Pennsylvania does not have “early voting” that will be “starting next week.” This is a misunderstanding of how things work in PA, and the actual process is complicated by court cases this year. 🧵

[Governor Wes Moore @GovWesMoore]

It was great to connect with Maryland's own @CrawfordStuff about why Marylanders can have faith in our elections – and how they can serve our state at the polls.

I wouldn't dare argue with @braderstorf's excellent taste...

Election years will have sunny days and stormy ones. @jessmarsden and I wrote this piece as a reminder that – even when dark clouds loom – we ☀️will☀️ get through 2024. Here's how. https://t.co/N6BWCqjmg9

This is the most deranged thing I have ever read. I love it so much. Thank you again and again, @FarFarrAway

A Fulton county official refused to certify Georgia’s 2024 primary results and filed a lawsuit claiming she has discretion when it comes to election certification. She is wrong. @DemocracyMcGee and @emilize explain in a new @ajc op-ed. https://t.co/SLwy7Po9PH

Supreme Court Overturns 'Right v. Wrong' https://t.co/hh8cFjNAMX

[Lulu NYT @LuluGNavarro]

Big picture: With its recent rulings on Immunity and Chevron, the Supreme Court is paving the way for a second DJT term with the presidency having almost limitless powers.
