Concerns About Future Electoral Challenges

Democrats are increasingly worried about potential election challenges stemming from Republican actions, particularly under Speaker Mike Johnson if he retains his position after the upcoming elections. There are fears that Johnson may attempt to obstruct the certification of a possible Kamala Harris victory, drawing on his past with the 2020 election amicus brief. Despite the passage of the bipartisan electoral count act meant to prevent such obstructions, apprehensions about Johnson's legal creativity and influence over his party persist. This tension has led to heightened fundraising appeals from Democrats, emphasizing the urgency of flipping the House to prevent possible abuses from Johnson and his MAGA-aligned associates.
