It really is. The beauty of the system is that if a state can’t get its shit together, it simply doesn’t vote, and no other states are affected. How nobody seems to understand this and thinks that if they draw the chaos out to Jan 20 Pelosi magically becomes President is beyond me

Don't anticipate the democrats following rules and procedures.

I get that. But outright ignoring how the EC has operated for 232 years is a bridge too far for most people. There’s no way to interpret what they’re doing other than that it’s a hot coup and they don’t care what the electorate wants. At that point the republic is dead until we purge the plotters

I’m sure they’ll think of some clever word garbage to brand the EC racist

They've been trying to get rid of the EC for years. Hillary has stumped for getting rid of it many, many times, calling it "outdated" and such - and that was BEFORE she lost.

The fortunate thing is the Democrat party is built on fraud run by cowards. They can plan their coup all they want but when push comes to shove they have no clothes. I do think their gameplan is to steal the election and if they can't they'll use Nancy to prevent the election from being confirmed. The more we show up at the voting booth, the more they will be forced to reconcile with their terrible idea.

This will be their grand tactic to get rid of the electoral college. I think you figured out their strategy.

Sounds like the liberals will pull some fuckery in swing states if they think their state is going to lose.

It also makes me wonder if they can forge a postmark on fake ballots to push them through if they're not in the system on time.

USPS doesn't postmark pre-paid mailers. I haven't seen any reports on how they're going to handle that.

Gas-lighting.

This is definitely their plan.

heard this theory that if a state doesn't have a valid election, current state government can just declare a vote for president as they see fit? I am not well versed on how states actually cast their votes...

The Constitution gives no requirements for how states choose their electors. So for example, it would be a douche move (but perfectly legal) for Wisconsin to pass a law saying that there’s no election, we’re picking electors based on how much beer bread and cheese they can handle.

If it comes up, we’d have to look at the state’s specific laws around the topic to see what happens

that's unfortunate.

I heard California repealed (or is repealing) their Civil Rights legislature prohibiting discrimination based on all the protected classes

New Jersey and New York have been quite draconian in their Covid response measures.

if they get to pull crap like that, they can probably do whatever the fuck they want with their state's votes if they can muddle the election.

It’s on the ballot. California has a democratic constitution. That means all amendments have to be approved by voters.

We can't afford to just " see what happens" when they have the house. I appreciate your rosy outlook on the situation however.
