Opinion: Republican election sabotage has already started. New Mexico is proof of that - CNNLast week, the all-Republican Otero County commission in rural New Mexico showed us how deeply ... Donald Trump's disinformation has penetrated our country's election institutions.Acting in its capacity as an election canvassing board, the county commission abandoned its legal duty to certify the county election results because, as the commissioners declared, they just "don't trust" the Dominion voting machines that New Mexico uses to tabulate votes. The commissioners had evidently fallen hook, line and sinker for the completely debunked 2020 election conspiracy theory spread by Trump and his acolyte, lawyer Sidney Powell, that Dominion Voting Systems' machines secretly switched votes from Trump to Joe Biden. On Wednesday, the New Mexico Supreme Court ordered the commission to reverse course and certify the June 7 election results.
