that would mean that any state court, with a majority of liberal judges, could order selective recounts and vote rigging in only Democratic counties, to allow a Democratic candidate for a federal seat to "win".

and the SCOTUS should have let that go forward? we would have paid more dearly in the future if that practice would have been allowed to stand.

Well, since a candidate for President does not "win" until the Congress counts the electoral votes, and since the Florida Legislature was and is the sole provider of electors, I presume that said Republican legislature would have submitted a slate of electors to the Republican House of Representatives which would have satisfied your expectations without violating the Constitution.

The fact that the Florida Supreme Court was planning to create a second, non-Constitutional slate of pseudo-electors is not the business of the Supreme Court-it is the business of the People and their Congress.
