The North Dakota business is strong evidence of this. The official Democrat state party establishment engaged in a blatant attempt at voter suppression via bogus ads in one of the most tightly-contested and critical Senate races in the entire country, they've stood by it, the state Senator whose at-risk seat they're protecting has stood by it (when asked, she said “it is really important people understand the consequences of voting”[1]) - and this has received infinitely less mainstream press coverage than random online trolls joking about how Democrats should please vote on Wednesday. Random Republican bozos posting things that could never suppress a single vote[2] are treated as proof of widespread malfeasance while actual Democratic establishment misbehaviour is treated like the obscure ravings of some bozo which should be ignored.
And again, North Dakota was a case where the state Democrat establishment literally waved their shady bullshit in the face of everyone whose vote they wanted to suppress with their own name printed on the ad. Anything that would require investigative reporting to discover? Forget about it. We know the mainstream press don't investigate or report on this stuff. We'd never even know it happened. That's my point too.
I doubt the Georgia voter suppression claim is the only one the media got wrong either. It's the only one I've found out about that is wrong in this particular way, but given just how obscure and little-reported this error was, if there were others how would I even know?

[2] Seriously. The old and nasty tactic of targetted flyers with the wrong election date on, sure, but Tweets with a wink and a nod about how only "Democrats" should vote on that day? Not a chance, not with the saturation bombing of the entire Internet with reminders to vote.
The nicest thing I can say about you is that you're not serious about election integrity, so I'll just wish you happy hunting. Goodbye.
So you're saying that oversight should be 100% accurate, no false positives, to be considered legitimate?
You realize the Randolph County mess got sorted out, right? Isn't that exactly what's supposed to happen? Checks & balances.
You previously stated it was a Democratic election board. That was false. I watched an interview with that board. And they, one Republican and one Democrat, made it clear there was never a chance those poll sites were going to be closed. Believe them at your own peril.

Okay, I fell for it. I clicked that link. That North Dakota ad about hunting licenses was a bad move. The use of weasel words (eg "may lose") is no defense. As a staunch Democrat, I condemn all such BS. We are the party that enfranchises, not disenfranchises. (I'd much rather you vote for our opponents than not vote at all.)
Further, the trogs that go off script and pull this kind of stunt gives ammo to our critics, allowing people like you to falsely compare one bozo in the badlands with a deliberate nationwide effective perennial effort to disenfranchise us.
I begrudgingly thank you for pointing out the ND stunt. In response, I'll present a resolution to my local party condemning that action, with the goal of amending our state party platform to prohibit such nonsense.
Because that's how we Democrats roll: we clean house with sternly worded letters.
