Harvesting the 2020 Election – WSJ

Mrs. Pelosi s bill didn t become law, despite her attempts this year to jam some of its provisions into coronavirus bills. But it turns out she didn t really need it. Using the virus as an excuse, Democratic and liberal groups brought scores of lawsuits to force states to adopt its provisions. Many Democratic politicians and courts happily agreed. States mailed out ballots to everyone. Judges disregarded statutory deadlines for receipt of votes. They scrapped absentee-ballot witness requirements. States set up curbside voting and drop-off boxes. They signed off on ballot harvesting.

Meaning, the fix (as it were) was in well before anyone started counting votes. Pollsters aside, political operatives understood this election would be close potentially closer in key states than it was in 2016. The Democratic strategy from the start, as evidenced by that legal onslaught, was to get rules in place that would allow them to flood the zone with additional mail-in ballots.
