You did it America. Because you voted, we can say that We The People are fed up with this nonsense. Make no mistake, an incoming Democrat house is on its way one year out.

NEW: Two weeks after Democracy Docket launched in 2020, I outlined four pillars needed to protect mail-in voting. Five years later, Republicans are asking the Supreme Court to strike down one of those pillars in an effort to limit ballot access — and I’ll be there to defend it, Marc Elias writes.
I Protected Mail-in Voting in 2020. Now I Will Be Defending It at the Supreme Court.
If Republicans thought they could score an easy win by suing a friendly state, they thought wrong. They didn't count on my law firm representing groups that would intervene to defend the law -- but that's exactly what happened.
