How about this election.

After the 2020 United States presidential election, the campaign for incumbent President Donald Trump and others filed over fifty lawsuits[1][2][3] contesting election processes, vote counting, and the vote certification process in multiple states, including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.[4] Nearly all the suits were dismissed or dropped due to lack of evidence;[5] judges, lawyers, and other observers described the suits as "frivolous"[6] and "without merit".[7]

Trump, his attorneys, and his supporters falsely[8] asserted widespread election fraud in public statements, though few such assertions were made in court.[9] In one instance, the Trump campaign and other groups seeking his election collectively lost multiple cases in six states on one day.[10] Every state except Wisconsin[11] met the December 8 statutory "safe harbor" deadline to resolve disputes and certify voting results. The Trump legal team had said it would not consider this election certification deadline as an expiration date for its litigation of the election results.[12][13][14] Three days after it was filed by Texas attorney general Ken Paxton, the Supreme Court on December 11 declined to hear a case supported by Trump and his Republican allies asking for electoral votes in four states to be rejected.[15]

What are they afraid of? Or more importantly, who are they afraid of? These continued efforts through the decades make no sense if they believe their cause is just and for the common good. If so, they would welcome more voters, being the Party of the people. Yet so much of their effort over the years has been to suppress the vote, and every year at least three of their attempts are crushed by SCOTUS as being unconstitutional or racist.

After record turnout in the 2020 presidential election, Republicans in some states are already signaling they will pursue measures that make it harder to vote in the coming years.

The Republican efforts come after an election in which nearly 160 million people voted, the highest in a presidential election in over a century. About half of voters cast their ballots by mail, a big increase from 2016, while about another quarter cast their ballots in person ahead of election day.

The GOP backlash underscores how swiftly and severely the party is willing to cut off access to the ballot amid signs of a changing electorate. The baseless accusations of fraud that Donald Trump and other allies continue to levy about the election has offered election officials justification for passing the measures.

“There will be some states where it is very clear that the existing power structure is worried about their voters. And part of their job security plan is to make it harder for their voters to participate,” said Myrna Pérez, director of the voting rights and elections program at the Brennan Center for Justice.
