The Most Litigated Election Ever
https://www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-most-litigated-election-ever/
It has become common to identify ways in which Donald Trump has distorted our democracy. His attacks on judges, his willful disregard for rule of law and his insistence on appointing unqualified sycophants to positions of high office are all a matter of consternation and commentary.
His greatest damage has been to the electoral process itself. Prior to the 2020 election, he unleashed a torrent of lies about voting and election security. When he lost, he tried in vain to overturn the results of free and fair elections via the courts. When that failed, he instigated a violent insurrection to try to prevent the counting of the Electoral College results in Congress.
