Sorry, martial law cannot stop the elections. Even during the “real insurrection” (I.e. the Civil War), the elections were still held.
I agree with that. Talk about "insurrection"!
For the party in power to cancel elections (TOTALLY unprecedented and illegal) while investigating the minority party for low-level trespassing ("insurrection" and "threat to our democracy") would really send the message that our system of government is a complete illusion.
Who is going to stop them from stopping the elections? What do you envision the republicans doing to stop it?
