a) It's risky to KEEP doing it, or do it TOO obviously.
b) the prize was Trump & GOP majorities in both Houses, and they got that. I think they also basically flipped every Senate seat that was legitimately considered "up for grabs".

To be clear I'm not asserting it WAS stolen, I'm only answering your questions as if it WERE the case. Which I doubt, but I'm open to the idea, esp. if the theory plausibly involves only a handful of actors.
