An election official carries a ballot box while pursued by a chain of figures in successive panels. The sequence ends with the box on a voting table beside its slot and the group nearing. The piece highlights concerns over ballot security and potential interference in vote counting during an election cycle.
The cartoon published November 18, 2020, shows Sen. Lindsey Graham pulling the chain on a light bulb labeled democracy that is going out. Behind him stands a GOP elephant holding a paper titled ballot disposal scheme that calls for throwing out thousands of legally cast votes. Large text in the upper right reads the night the light went out in Georgia. The image responds to post-election disputes in Georgia over mail-in ballots and vote counting during the 2020 presidential contest between Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
