So... this should have happened in 2016, too... The margins were even tighter. Would you have been as supportive of this effort if the Dems had control to dictate that outcome?

Wisconsin was 1%

There have been close contests every election. 2000 was decided by 567 votes. We somehow managed to get through that without having the US Congress invalidate the state's vote.

PA was >1%

FL > 1%

The only one <1% was Mich

Congress didn't get involved in Bush v. Gore, the Supreme Court did and that was a fraction of fraction of a rounding error (less than 1k votes in a single state) ... no hope of Congress getting involved here but that doesn't mean the grift can't go on right up until and just after Biden is sworn in https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-inauguration-day-rally

Congress should have gotten involved in 2000.

I'd have been happy for Gore to win.

Seriously, what the fuck are you talking about. We have 3 states <%0.6. There's only 1 in 2016.

What is your arbitrary, fictional threshold for warranting Congress to override the will of the people because their candidate did not win??? You haven't provided a justification for any of it - other than the sore loser should do it if their party has the votes for it.

Bad faith

Fuck off

Man... Logic is so hard to overcome. So, attack me instead of my position. Brilliant.

I attacked your position. It moved after I showed it was wrong.

Simmer down bud, it's a conversation no need to rage.

In the end they will lay their freedom at our feet and say to us, Make us your slaves, but feed us.

~Fyodor Dostoevsky

I just want one owner. I'm sick of this whole diffusion of responsibility.

"A really efficient totalitarian state would be one in which the all-powerful executive of political bosses and their army of managers control a population of slaves who do not have to be coerced, because they love their servitude."


~Aldous Huxley

The alternative is ignorant angels thinking that they're doing what's best for you. They'll zealously oppress you, and they'll feel morally justified as they're doing it for your own good.

@DrSammyD, you just advanced to level 18!

How did it move? My post said "There's a difference between state legislature sending slates of electors and the Congress voting to reject a slate of electors because their guy didn't win."

Your reply to that post was "didn't win by half a %"

You provided an arbitrary number of not winning by more than .5%. That's your assertion not mine. Your goal post. I asked where in the constitution it said that the US Congress should intervene if their candidate did not win the majority of votes?

"So... this should have happened in 2016, too... The margins were even tighter. Would you have been as supportive of this effort if the Dems had control to dictate that outcome?" - You. In the post I quoted / responded to.

a 911 system upgrade that turns your mobile device into a surveillance platform, with all sensor access, what could go wrong?

Margins was the wrong word... I meant that Trump won by fewer total votes in the battleground states that he flipped to win.

Again - I was not focused on the .5% number that you were asserting. I didn't see that as a hard number. Just that being a close race shouldn't be the bellwether for US Congress intervening.

from who's perspective?

...the most important election in 75 generations...

Caller and all others in radius x ?

I'm open to that being the case, but being within the margin of error is what I'm talking about (error could be any ballot counted illegally, not necessarily fraudulent) causing the election to be in doubt. And it needs to be challenged by either party.

Also, they literally challenged recounting in MI in 2016, but they stopped at the behest of the Democrats who started to get cold feet.
