This paragraph:


We’ve resisted making this move for a long time because we’ve been burned before by Coffman. At various points over the last decade we’ve thought that Coffman was in real trouble of losing re-election, only to see him miraculously emerge victorious in November. We weren’t looking to make that mistake again, and we’ve said as much in this space on multiple occasions since the 2016 election.

We need sufficient control to overcome the voter suppression disease that GOPers have spread.
Electronic cheats seem to be on the way out as more states are requiring a paper trail.
