Nevada is a swing state. Much more risk of mischief.
Washington likely will clear out as everyone goes to their home districts to politic.
If organizers of a voter registration drive were allowed to discard applications they thought or claimed to believe were fake, then they could throw out any for the opposite party, making people think they were registered when they weren't.
Once the registrations are filled out, it's illegal for the organizers to discard any. That fact was exploited by James O'Keefe when he made a film accusing a liberal community organizing group of committing fraud. They had given homeless people jobs to sign up voters,. Some worked, but some slacked. It was fairly obvious which applications were fake, but the group had to turn them all in. They segregated the suspicious ones and alerted the voter registration board of it.
People are criticizing them for not wearing life jackets, but I don't know that I've ever seen a photo of anyone on a yacht wearing a life jacket.
The fake voter registrations are less likely orchestrated by parties. They pay unemployed people to collect registrations, and a couple slackers will just fill out forms to get easy money without actually finding people to register.
It's a pain for people doing GOTV on election day. I was sent at 6 pm on an election day to find out why zero voters from one block had voted. It turned out to be a block of sealed abandoned homes. My time could have been spent better elsewhere.
He has such a poor opinion of US intelligence agencies, he apparently doesn't appreciate how good the CIA is at assassinating people in South America.

Here in Philadelphia, they dump liquids into mail boxes and set them on fire just for shits and giggles. If I'm mailing anything, I use the post office lobby slot.
All that counts is the electoral college.
And aw, gee, all the Chechens and Russians are getting chewed up in the meat grinder in Ukraine, so they can't send in troops to put down the protests.
Glad the Ukies are on our side.
The humor columnist endorsed Harris, at least.
