There are many reasons to be pessimistic about 2024 being a repeat of 2020 election theft - nothing has been done to secure elections from fraud, and no one has faced consequences for the fraud.

However, at the risk of being called.naive, I do see one difference that might work in our favor and discourage 2020 level cheating:

There were thousands of people involved in the vast 2020 cheating conspiracy, ranging from a few well-placed strategists at the very top to armies of low-level recruits at the bottom.

Leading up to November of 2020, there were myriads of communications, conversations, instructions and even payments at every level as recruits received their marching orders - the vast majority of them oblivious of the fact that they were committing a crime.

It’s called plausible deniability. The trafficking of millions of supposedly “mailed in” ballots was a new thing because of Covid, and low-level mules and mid-level recruiters were all just following someone else’s instructions.

Even if someone suspected they were involved in something wrong - and asked their supervisor - the supervisor could just shrug his shoulders and say this is what they were being told to do. “Because of Covid, there are all these mailed in ballots being returned - the post office can’t handle the volume - they need to be deposited in lock boxes so people’s votes can be counted. You get $10 for every hundred you deliver”.

Even if one of the recruiters was suspicious of wrongdoing and asked the person up the line - the answer could always be a shrug of the shoulder and “I don’t know that’s what I was told.”

I think since 2020 that plausible deniability is largely gone. True, no one got punished, and the fraud cases all got thrown out of court for “lack of standing” - but questions got asked and the question of massive fraud dominated the news cycle for a couple months.

Many who participated must have had moments of fear - did I commit a crime?

Remember the election center in MI where the Democrats put cardboard on the glass so the Republican observers couldn’t observe the count? Think about that. They were probably told to do that and just followed orders. They obviously didn’t think they were doing anything wrong - they knew they were being filmed and that their faces were on camera.

But watching the news and seeing themselves caught doing that - they must have had moments of doubt - even fear that they had been duped into a crime.

My point is - these thousands of people got away with something in 2020 and if asked had been asked they could honestly say they had no idea it was a crime.

But will it be that easy to recruit mules and ballot traffickers this time around? I don’t think so. Let’s say you are a higher level recruiter or coordinator of the fraud - how do you know the person you are recruiting isn’t an under cover whistle blower, say from Project Veritas?

I’m just saying it will be harder to do it this time - people will be asking more questions - questions that can’t be answered.
