I'm beginning to think that the October surprise could actually be a November surprise and take the form of the SCOTUS handing the white house and the R's some huge vote suppression win. And we already know this is why there is such a rush to stack the SCOTUS
the R's sure are trying to generate one, but so far, for the most part, are losing the battles:

here is an R whining about the 'signature verification process', which of course has proven to be close to voodoo anyway.
the R's would like to reject thousands of ballots. The stated goal would be to filter out a half dozen possible fraudulent votes out of those thousand. But the real goal, obviously, is to reject Democratic votes with the R's know are a higher rate of the early and mail-in ballots.

speaking of the bullshit of trying to match signatures (how many people sign the same way every time?); here's an article that outlines why it's an area potentially 'loaded-with-bias-and-voter-suppression':
* "Whatever the reason, the pattern is clear. An analysis of the 2020 Florida primary by the Stanford-MIT Healthy Elections Project found that Black and Hispanic voters’ ballots were rejected at roughly double the rate white voters’ were. The same was true in Wisconsin, where more than 10,000 Black voters’ ballots were rejected in the 2020 primary. President Trump’s 2016 margin of victory in the state was fewer than 23,000 votes.
In 2018, civil-rights groups sued over ballot rejections in Gwinnett County, a suburban Atlanta county that is nearly 30 percent Black. The county rejected more than 7 percent of mail-in ballots, a staggering figure compared with the national total of 1.4 percent in 2018, but only about 3 percent of ballots from white voters were rejected, compared with 5.1 percent from Hispanic voters, 10.3 percent from Black voters, and 13.9 percent from Asian American voters. Gwinnett accounted for nearly 40 percent of all the ballots rejected in Georgia in 2018."
it's well worth a read, and don't be surprised if this is something the SCOTUS rules on about this election:

and this could be the case taken to the SCOTUS about signature matching:

I refuse to believe that the country is this fucked up.
