We have poll workers refusing to work due to threats to their safety. We have an increasing number of candidates and elected officials who believe the last election was stolen in positions to override actual election results. We have an increasing number of people who want to &amp;quot;police&amp;quot; the polls (this one troubles me the most). And of course there&amp;#x27;s been a huge increase in restrictive and oftentimes convoluted voting laws that are going to confuse the hell out of people and result in many votes not being cast or counted.&lt;p&gt;We already have the majority of one party believing the last election as stolen despite a comprehensive lack of evidence. It won&amp;#x27;t take too many more people until a clear majority simply stop believing any election results are valid.</text></comment>
