How many states DON'T require this? Quote

Seems like they want it both ways or are they just trying to pass the voter fraud bill so they will never lose another election??? Expand 2022 is illegitimate because Republicans are trying to subvert it. Actually that will be 2024 when Republican State Legislators throw out Democratic Electors in states won by a Democratic Presidential candidate because they don't like the results. That's throwing out the Constitutional right of voters to vote for the President of their choice in favor of legislative fiat overthrowing their choice. Republicans are turning this country into a 3rd world banana republic. Contemptible. Unconstitutional. Quote
