“The Guardian”: Trump will challenge the election results in a more organized way
The British “The Guardian” wrote that Donald Trump will start “sowing chaos” and undermining the election results even before the vote counting is completed, and these efforts will be much better organized this time than in the previous elections in 2020.
– Electoral lawyers and election law experts are preparing for aggressive efforts by the former president in the days after the election to undermine the results while the votes are still being counted – said the author of the article, a reporter for the British daily Sam Levine.
In his opinion, these efforts are now “much more organized” than those in 2020, after the defeat by the current president Joe Bidenwhen Trump's attempts to overturn the election results “seemed a bit chaotic.”
Trump and his allies have been spreading claims of alleged fraud for months to influence the outcome of the election. Groups associated with the Republican Party also filed lawsuits accusing the authorities of the swing states of negligence in creating voter lists.
Some experts call these complaints “zombie lawsuits.” Many of them have already been rejected, but although Republicans are losing these cases, some commentators say they are aimed at undermining public confidence in elections and setting the stage for attempts to overturn the results. – I think that after the election there will be people upset with the results, saying: 'For the last eight months they had bloated lists, dead souls and foreigners on the lists, and the courts did nothing about it – said a voting rights expert from the liberal Brennan Center for Justice institute Sean Morales-Doyle.
