Inside a Republican Plan to Encourage Early Voting Despite Trump’s Attacks: Donald Trump’s falsehoods about mail voting have created a strategic disadvantage for ...
nytimes.com/2024/04/04/us/politics/trump-turning-point-action-chase-vote.html
Quick Glance: Republican Strategy to Promote Early Voting Amid Trump's Criticism
- Donald Trump’s misinformation regarding mail voting has created strategic disadvantages for Republicans who rely on Election Day participation. Turning Point Action is implementing a plan exceeding $100 million to alter voter behavior.
- In a vast area in Phoenix, leaders of the influential conservative group Turning Point Action were strategizing solutions to what they view as a critical threat to the Republican Party: the avoidance of early voting, especially by mail, since the 2020 election.
- The organization, initially emerging as a rebel faction for young Republicans and now a significant force in right-wing politics, aims to fundraise and allocate over $108 million for a Chase the Vote initiative with numerous personnel in Arizona and Wisconsin.
- The Chase the Vote initiative represents one of the most substantial and costly endeavors on the conservative spectrum to encourage Republicans towards early voting. The widespread discontinuation of this practice, previously favored by both parties before 2020, results in Republican candidates being more vulnerable to Election Day challenges like adverse weather, lengthy queues, or technical malfunctions.

Quick Glance: Trump's Return to Wisconsin with False Election Claims
- Donald Trump returned to Wisconsin for the first time in nearly two years, re-introducing himself to the battleground state with misleading claims about the 2020 election.
- Trump falsely claimed he won Wisconsin in 2020, despite not winning the state that year. His assertions have been refuted by Republican officials and other candidates distancing themselves from the idea that the 2020 election was stolen.
- Despite efforts by some allies to shift focus to the upcoming election, Trump continues to adhere to his conspiracy theories surrounding the past election.
- The rally in Green Bay highlighted that this message has not yet resonated with some of Trump's most fervent supporters, as prominent advocates like Mike Lindell persist in alleging that the 2020 elections in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin were wrongly decided.
Trump swindles his followers — again: Not for the first time, the former president and presumptive GOP nominee has played his supporters for suckers.
