Comment. ALT0 is missing a word for it to make sense, and if I'm reading the article correctly, that word would be "one": "... that one of the Republican activists interviewed in the 2006 documentary ...So Goes the Nation later changed parties?" With regard to ALT2, if the filmmakers were "originally trying to document possible voter fraud" in the election, that implies that they might have changed their minds and decided to focus on something else, or perhaps that they couldn't find evidence of voter fraud. What did they wind up with instead? I can't really tell from the article. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:15, 2 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Metropolitan90: I clarified that they dropped the voter fraud stuff, I couldn't find why but Ill look again soon. Olliefant (she/her) 16:23, 2 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
