A democratic form of government cannot endure without free and fair elections that are devoid of fraud. Nevertheless, there is always someone or some entity in every election that opens their bag of dirty tricks under a misguided misconception that the end will justify their means. There were undoubtedly illegalities in the 2020 election cycle. Whether they were as conspiratorially widespread as Mr. Trump and his supporters believe, the question remains as to whether they were actually sufficient to alter the outcome of the election. Wherever the truth may lie, there is obviously a continuing conflict that has given rise to all sorts of problems. Unfortunately, there is little doubt that the 2020 election will be a major issue in the 2024 election and thereby foreseeably cloud the outcome of that election as well.
