Please read the following:
Only the libs forgot this part of the process which states that BOTH the Senate and the House must ACCEPT the electors votes from each state.
If there is an OBJECTION sustained by both houses of Congress then that “electors” vote can be rejected or the electors votes from the ENTIRE state can be REFUSED:
“Joint session of Congress and contingencies
Further information: Contingent election The Twelfth Amendment mandates Congress assemble in joint session to count the electoral votes and declare the winners of the election.[57] The session is ordinarily required to take place on January 6 in the calendar year immediately following the meetings of the presidential electors.[58] Since the Twentieth Amendment, the newly elected House declares the winner of the election; all elections before 1936 were determined by the outgoing House.
The meeting is held at 1:00 pm in the Chamber of the U.S. House of Representatives.[58] The sitting vice president is expected to preside, but in several cases the President pro tempore of the Senate has chaired the proceedings. The vice president and the Speaker of the House sit at the podium, with the vice president in the seat of the Speaker of the House. Senate pages bring in the two mahogany boxes containing each state’s certified vote and place them on tables in front of the senators and representatives. Each house appoints two tellers to count the vote (normally one member of each political party). Relevant portions of the Certificate of Vote are read for each state, in alphabetical order.
Members of Congress can object to any state’s vote count, provide objection is presented in writing and is signed by at least one member of each house of Congress. An objection supported by at least one senator and one representative will be followed by the suspension of the joint session and by separate debates and votes in each House of Congress; after both Houses deliberate on the objection, the joint session is resumed.
A state’s certificate of vote can be rejected only if both Houses of Congress vote to accept the objection. In that case, the votes from the State in question are simply ignored. The votes of Arkansas and Louisiana were rejected in the presidential election of 1872.[59]”

Then war it is
Something soros and the clintons want badly
You want a civil war? These fools don’t have a clue how the other half feels about them. They also have no clue how well armed that other half is.
This is the 2nd posting of the same thread under a different title in a short span.
Why not put the earlier one in breaking?
“Secretary Clinton WON THE POPULAR VOTE “
Lie. Clinton won the COUNTED votes. Provisional and absentee ballots were not counted in states where Trump won above the threshold that requires those votes to be counted.
The irony is had Hillary’s base come out for her Tuesday, she would have won.
Her own voters don’t even like her and they’re having second thoughts now?
Sorry, there are no do-overs in life. When you lose, you lose.
You don’t get to change the outcome because you don’t like it. Live with it.
Not gonna happen brah.
Relax. Not going to happen. Once Hillary conceded defeat it was over.
This is where, when a losing candidate drops dead, there is really nothing the losing party can do to change the race.
Oh no worry there once Clinton is installed the weenies without guns will have the military called out on orders. THEN, they believe in law n order
The newly elected House and Senate must approve any such move by electors, as pointed out earlier on this subject.
This is going NOWHERE.
Pearl clutching is over.
How assured are we that this won’t happen? Do we need a counter petition?
Second it.
No she doesn’t. Nobody would take the Presidency that way. NOBDOY. You agree to the rules up front. If this were a fight for the popular vote, both of them would have campaigned differently. SO stupid.
Estimated 5 million illegal votes were made.

My guess is that the little weenie elijah berg is completely incapable of forcing his wish on America’s Trump voters. Elijah Berg just likes puffing himself up like a hot air balloon.
