Electoral College worked settling the 2020 election

;Fox and Newsmax, and OANN will soon follow, had to stop lying to their audiences about the election and admit all their lies were just that, lies. It was that or get ripped in court and they knew it. They looked good eating crow too, especially Lou Dobbs. "The far-right and overwhelmingly pro-Trump “news” outlet Newsmax had to issue a two-minute statement listing all the things that had been claimed on their show that were backed up by zero evidence after being threatened with a defamation lawsuit."

This next bit is a killer ... "Fox News lawyers tell court: our audience doesn't assume we tell the truth." It's embarrassing to admit to being conned. How much more proof do the trumpsters need?

Looks like the Liberal news services don't cover DUELING ELECTORS. It's not over, folks. Sit back and watch God at work!

This election was totally fraudulent. No way on God's green earth did sleepy, basement dwelling Joe get enough legitimate votes to defeat President Trump.

Dueling electors, what a joke. Only those credentialed by each state's secretary of state count. Dueling electors ... keep dreaming. Count them, 81,000,000 Americans don't like kids in cages and a dozen private phone calls with the Russians. That worked out real well for America. Your own party leaders said the election was fair. Get over it. Suck it up (where have I heard that) and nobody really cares about your feelings. You elected a monster, a sociopath, and he's killed more than 300,000 Americans. Bunker Boy has no where left to run ... except Russia!

I notice neither of you mentioned the fact that you've been lied to by your favorite television stations. So where you going to get your lies from now?

Lot of Biden says, in the article. Question I want to know. Where is Hunter?

[thumbup] Nicely written. I agree wholeheartedly,

For those that think that DUELING ELECTORS is going to work, where are the votes in the Senate coming from?

There's no way the House will vote for it!

All this is going to do is lose members for the GOP, because some people will no longer want to be a Republication, after this parade of distorted facts!

No. 2 GOP senator: Efforts to overturn election would 'go down like a shot dog'

Sen. John Thune (S.D.), the No. 2 Senate Republican, warned on Monday that efforts to challenge the Electoral College vote in Congress next month would fall short in the Senate.

Thune, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.), a member of GOP leadership and the Senate Rules Committee chairman, used a private caucus call last week to warn members of the caucus against challenging the results on Jan. 6.

Electoral Count Act requires that the winner in a state receive the Electoral vote.

Republicans in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Nevada and Michigan followed the White House’s lead, making their own competing slates of pro-Trump electors, it was a theatrical effort with no legal pathway. Electoral College slates are tied to the winner of the popular vote in each state, and all five of those states have certified their results in favor of President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr.

The most the Republicans could do was claim a symbolic moment, saying that the people who showed up would have been the slates of electors had Mr. Trump won those states. But since he lost them, and numerous state and federal courts have rejected his and his allies’ baseless claims of voting fraud, these groups have no actual significance.

Mr. Trump’s supporters have also seized upon some superficial murkiness in the Constitution and federal law as to whether a state legislature could appoint its own slate of electors.

Since the Electoral Count Act was enacted in 1887, a situation akin to “dueling electors” has happened only once, when Hawaii was in the throes of a close recount in 1960. The governor of Hawaii signed off on a Republican slate of electors for Richard M. Nixon before the recount was completed; when it was finished and showed John F. Kennedy ahead, the governor had to send a new Democratic slate to Congress. The Democratic slate was accepted.

The Constitution stipulates that states select their electors “in such manner as the Legislature thereof may direct.” In modern times the states have done that by holding popular elections that determine to whom their electors will be pledged. Various constitutionally enshrined rights and laws would preclude state legislatures from changing the rules and nullifying the popular will after the fact in pursuit of a different outcome.

No Jim, they think God is a con artist just like they are. These people are one the reasons I quit going to church. I couldn’t stand being in the same pew with them. They are hypocrites, and have ruined religion for the rest of us.

Whose god, Mr. Ponce? Lord Kon Tiki Viracocha already pulled off one miracle, much to your dismay.

Mr. Lambro laid everything out neat and clean. The fact that you whiners insist Trump won speaks loudly about your lack of knowledge of how our government works. Loud mouth Bunker Boy, for once in his life, was held accountable for his egregious behavior. We fired him!

I’ve had enough of your Jesus, Carlos.

So just to level set us all here, religion/spirituality is saying "I pray for my country, president, etc...."; saying "I purport to speak for God, and God says..." is, let me look it up, ah here it is..........What is a false prophet?. I'll take Demagoguery for $400 Alex (may he RIP).......

Carlos brings up God in his posts as a back stop when he fails to have a credible explanation for things. He also uses religion in a condescending way, like above, claiming that he and unnamed others will pray for me, as if I’ve done something wrong. He should go post in the religious sections.

The number of deaths this year is expected to be more than eight times the usual increase

Life expectancy may drop by as much as 3 years from 2019. This dwarfs even the opioid crisis.

We will soon escape from the complete failure of leadership. Ironically Inauguration Day is 1/20/2021, a palindrome that will reverse the horrible past four years.

Stay home, wash often, stay apart, and wear a mask.
