I think the most logical concern is that the Electoral Voters from Wisconsin aren’t allowed to participate on December 19. I think that is the Democrats end game.
In the Gore vs Bush debacle, Supremes ruled that a recount could not delay participation of the states electors, if I remember correctly. They also ruled 7-2 that the recount procedures were flawed since they did not apply the same to all the states votes -- only select few counties. The slim majority of 5-4 was on the opinion of whether FL could get it done correctly in time or not for the entire state. The majority 6 stating that they could not provide the remedy in time. So, the count stood because the Supreme Court stated that the states electors had to vote in Dec for the winner of the state's electors.

Meant majority “5” not “6”
