JOSEPH NIXON (PUBLIC INTEREST LEGAL FOUNDATION): It's going to be a much better situation then what we had in 2020. And Vicki, thank you for having me on and letting me talk about this a little bit. In 2020 we experienced a new situation, we had this COVID, and then we had state supreme courts completely ignoring the state's laws and we didn't have any real effective ability to challenge the implementation of crazy rules designed just for the COVID situation. Now we don't have that we are looking at in states like Georgia and Texas rewrote their election codes to prohibit some of the problems that we faced during the COVID situation. So we're in a lot better shape. And then we are -- our organization and organizations like ours are challenging, forcing jurisdictions to comply with their statutes, to follow the law, and they know that we're looking hard.
