If certain Dem-run states were trying to sow the seeds of doubt in the results of the upcoming election, what would they be doing any differently than getting everybody prepared for a drawn-out vote counting process?
For starters I have a feeling we're going to be seeing some more of this kind of thing right after the election:

That was in 2020, and we're already being prepped for similar sights this year.
The amount of "this will be perfectly normal" preparation that's going on to explain things that should in no way be normal is growing.
Pennsylvania's State Department started doing that weeks ago:
Pennsylvanians won’t always know the final results of all races on election night. Any changes in results that occur as counties continue to count ballots are not evidence that an election is “rigged.” See the full explanation at https://t.co/viVtWSw4HL. pic.twitter.com/gbaDh8lJpX

Human nature dictates that when a state government tells you that a vote count could take far longer than it has in the past but that it's not a sign the process is rigged, people are going to be more likely to think something's rigged.
But that kind of thing isn't isolated to Pennsylvania.
Now the Michigan Secretary of State is already bracing us to not know who won the election until they decide who the winner is:
Michigan SOS @JocelynBenson says she estimates the battleground state will have the results of this year's presidential race by the end of the day on Wednesday — the day after Election Day.

"With that said, we will always prioritize accuracy and security over efficiency," she… pic.twitter.com/udCHTjDW6a
"We will always prioritize accuracy and security over efficiency" -- did a government official really say that out loud?
Florida will have their results fully tallied by 11 p.m. but for some reason states that Dems control will be moving at the speed of snail on election night. The "third world country elections" vibe to some states' elections can't be allowed to continue.
If you were trying to create distrust in the electoral process how would you behave differently than Michigan for example which fought to keep Trump off the ballot, RFK on the ballot and won’t tell Americans the results of counting those ballots for 24 hours after polling closes? https://t.co/HSzFr5AoqI

On top of that the postal workers' union representing those who will be delivering millions of mail-in ballots endorsed Kamala Harris. But don't you dare not "trust the process"!
