Am I the only one to think that we have reached the end of free and fair elections? Elections from now on, will depend upon the qualify perception of how it was run. Nobody had a clue of the inner workings of the election process prior to 2020. Yet, many people make strong claims about the possibility/impossibility of fraud being perpetuated. Even if the major races this year do not claim fraud, the candidates will have to be ready to go to court to battle frivolous clams. This will affect the money on hand to run the actual campaigns. Even if both parties take the high road and agree not to convert the election no matter what – like they do in Africa – a fringe candidate can some along and upend everything with claims of fraud and vast conspiracy. Although the elections will have winners – maybe even unanimous winners, the election itself will not be free and fair. It will be costly too prepare for potential claims of fraud. And will be unfairly tilted to the candidates that embrace election turmoil.
