Make no mistake, what the GOP is trying to do right now is apartheid. They are trying to literally make it so the votes of black people straight up do not count. https://twitter.com/nancykaffer/status/1328836317137022976
In this particular Michigan situation, the state board should certify the results by December 13th. So says the Michigan Sec of State. So on the binary question of "is this the coup" we're still at a "no."

But, jesus, what the GOP is willing to do right now is shocking.
The Democrats simply *must* win the runoffs in Georgia and put at stop to these attempts to disenfranchise black people, or, failing that they must have the most aggressive executive order plan in history to stop Republicans from doing this.
Otherwise, this will be the last election Democrats are *allowed* to win and the GOP will simply throw away Black votes if they influence the outcome of elections.
