Great cites. You might want to put it over here too: > [@Midterm Cheating Watch](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/midterm-cheating-watch/1033989): > > This thread can start with discussion of whether my link captures what is likely, and can continue when we see how close any GOP election cheating actually is to the picture below: [Critical Conditions Podcast, Oct. 19, 2026](https://claireberlinski.substack.com/p/the-uses-of-chaos?utm_source=podcast-email%2Csubstack&publication_id=16235&post_id=221191869&utm_campaign=email-play-on-substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=play_card_play_button&r=2juke&triedRedirect=true) P.S.
