Dems Lay Groundwork To Prosecute Swing-State Officials Into Certifying Elections

Wielding prosecutions and threats of lawsuits, Democrats’ message is clear: rubber-stamp election results or else...

Last week, for example, election meddler Marc Elias threatened Republican officials in a post on X, implying that, should they not certify election results, he will sue them.

“In 2020, Trump tried to overturn the election. My team and I beat him in court 60+ times,” Elias posted on X. “In 2022, Republicans in several counties refused to certify. We sued and won. Here is my message to the GOP: If you try to subvert the election in 2024, you will be sued and you will lose.”...

But it’s not just Elias who has weaponized the law to target election officials who dare to question the process or outcome of an election. Some of the most egregious examples are happening in key swing states...

Mayes said in a statement regarding the charges against Crisby and Judd that the “repeated attempts to undermine our democracy are unacceptable” — because nothing says protecting democracy like trying to jail those who question it.
