I do not see any effort by the Democratic "leadership" to stop it.

the only way we win is for MASSIVE turnout/hyper-vigilance and a lot of luck.

Republicans are usually "in charge" in a re-apportioning year so they get to manipulate the electoral votes, their corporate whiz-bang-ery contributors own the mechanisms of voting, they seem to always manage to be "in charge" of the Sec of State positions in key states, and their people are ruthless cheaters who will do whatever is needed to win.

So that's a good start.

(SCOTUS has already approved Indiana's similar law, so don't look for help from them.)
