Democrats Prepare to Wage Legal War With GOP Over Election

 

Democrats and their allies are gearing up for a likely lengthy legal battle after Election Day.

 

Republicans and their affiliates have already filed dozens of lawsuits which they say will guarantee that November's election between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris is fair and accurate. Democrats have described these lawsuits as "political theater" aimed at sowing doubts about the integrity of the 2024 election and lay the groundwork for disputing the results in another potential Trump loss. The 2020 election was marred by false allegations from Trump and his allies that the results were rigged in favor of President Joe Biden due to widespread voter fraud.

 

Alex Floyd, spokesperson for the Democratic National Committee, said the party was ready to "stand up against MAGA Republicans' attacks on our democracy and efforts to sow chaos in our elections, from the polling place to the courthouse.

 

"We have assembled a robust legal and voter protection team with a proven track record of winning fights to protect voters' ability to make their voices heard. With more than 100 voter protection staff across key states and tens of thousands of volunteers, we're ready to stand up for all eligible voters' access to the ballot box," Floyd told Newsweek.
