Its not even just turnout. A lot of the Republican election boards have gotten wise to the game and started playing hardball. One of the less talked about phenomena that happened in the Virginia election is that rural counties didnt report their totals even when counting was done. They waited until the cities reported. The cities tried to hold off on declaring their own totals, but could only do it so long before it got suspicious, and meanwhile the rural counties are over there going "I can do this all day." Eventually, the cities finally reported their totals, giving a pretty significant amount of votes to the Dem....only for them to then be immediately wiped out by the rural counties finally reporting.
You know damn well that tactic will be repeated in all of the upcoming races.
This is why I have liked the comparison to the "Fortification" in 2020 being a sneak attack. The purpose of a sneak attack is to do something so shocking it throws the enemy off guard, allows the attacker a chance to run wild, and gain some ground. But the only way it works is by shocking the one attacked into surrendering because they think they cant win. If they resist the shock and fight back, it becomes much harder to deal with. Especially since the sneak attack cant happen again since they will be prepared for it this time. So you better hope you had a plan B and were ready for the slog.
Mounting evidence shows that, much like the Japanese attacking Pearl Harbor, the Left had one trick up their sleeve. And now that its gone, the only question that remains is "How long can they hold out before they lose?"

Nice. Forces the cities to actually commit, rather than giving them the opportunity to see how many votes would need to be "found" to offset the rural lead.
Of course, you'd need to have decent security around the count totals, if your city Democrats are willing to try and breach security to get the number prior to the announcement that'd still be enough for them to work off...
I didn’t know the bit about red counties withholding tallies until the blue counties were finished counting. That’s a no brainer for anyone familiar with what happened in 2020.
The other big change we need to see this November is poll watchers refusing to leave their stations for any reason whatsoever until the counting is done and submitted.

And, of course, not taping up the windows while the votes are tallied. Free, fair, and transparent. Something anathema to the cheaters.
Very good point you bring up.
I think the bullshit they pulled off in 2020 can't be replicated again this year because of various factors.
2020 was a perfect storm for the Dems; BLM riots, COVID pandemic, mass mail in ballots and the peak of Trump hatred was too much to overcome for us.
