yeah that checks out

So they just found 170k ballots linked to nobody in michigan? Can someone confirm?

People say a lot of things. Maybe you've noticed.

@Just A Dad Gamer It is actually too late now... its beyond the safe harbor. So if the case wasn't filed already the cert definitely couldn't be stopped.

@AntiFish03 from my understanding. The Legislator can still choose not have electors. Then the process plays out that I aint typin lul

Fair... if the legislature decides to take the choice from the voters they can do that

Its in their purview.

But that is also what is part of Texas v. Penn...

Some state legislatures have delegated the selection of the electors from themselves

in violation of the Constitution

There is precedent for a state splitting... Virginia and West Virginia but that's definitely not how it happened.

People gonwanna eat in coastal Cali.

Might want to redraw some lines.

Let’s go secession!

Agreed.

Ok, I have to admit, I think that might be a first on the brief from would be successionist states

@Uncivil Law, you just advanced to level 4!

That is .... a thing that happened I guess

Linked to nobody?

What's the violation of Constitution?

@Dedkraken Michigan Election Law Act 116 of 1954 Sec. 759 paragraph (3) lists three ways how applications for absent voter ballots may be made. IMO the election laws were not violated by the voters of Michigan using the applications provided by the MI Sec of State, so the votes from those ballots were placed constitutionally. I do think MI Sec of State violated the election laws distributing the applications and should face penalties for that violation. The process Michigan used that did violate their election laws is allowing absentee ballots applications via their website without signatures. The votes received from the ballots requested on the website were placed in violation of Michigan’s election laws and should not be counted. Sadly, I am one of those voters who requested their ballot without providing my signature via the website.

Which of those questions does that have to do with?

i was responding to your “what’s the violation of constitution” comment. sorry new here. can’t figure out how to follow different conversations!!

California has multiple layouts for secession from the coastal cities, I even saw a map with California split 6 ways.

The US Constitution gives the express power of the state legislature to designate the electors. not a member of the executive branch

It takes practice with Discord sometimes

To be honest it might help California if they split as there is so much difference between the big cities needs and the rural parts of the state.

If your splitting Cali Texas needs to split to offset those extra very liberal senators they would get

But I mean Congress can delegate things. Congress has say the power of the purse. If they write a law like defense spending bill and declare what they want to spend on what and turn it over to the POTUS to administer that spending it's legit. They can pass another law to modify that later.

In this case they laid out the rules they wanted to see followed to collect vote tallies and certify. This isnt unconstitutional the power is in there to design the system and they did.

But it is when those things are not followed

Gotcha you can hold down on a comment to reply to it. The Constitutionality of voting rules is a bit different than the power of state Congress over elector selection once they have the vote totals. I wasnt quite sure because what you said was kind of in line with both things

They were followed they got the certified results from each county to the state and then signed off. That's what the system was setup for.

But they weren't followed... that's what this Lawsuit is about...

thank you so much for the tip to hold down a comment to reply to it!!! that’s a game changer!!!

@x96petersen1, you just advanced to level 2!

You are using the pronoun they very broadly. The laws put into place on how to cast ballots is separate from the laws surrounding the certification process. The certification laws are to gather official vote totals and make sure everything is in order then rubber stamp then. This was all followed.

If there was fraud or they changed rules they shouldn't have or mailin ballots are wrong or whatever that's a different thing.
