"There isn't a d@amn thing Hussein and his thugs can do to stop the electoral votes from being counted"

"Bush v. Gore, 531 U.S. 98 (2000), is the United States Supreme Court decision that effectively resolved the dispute surrounding the 2000 presidential election in favor of George W. Bush.?

Oh yes there is. Just take some dispute or many disputes to court. Now that we know Roberts is really a progressive the GOPs' chances in the SC will not be good.

Article II, “Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to . . . “

Bush v. Gore resolved nothing. As per Article II, there was nothing to resolve.

FL sent in its electoral votes as per statute and the Constitution. No court decision could change that then, and no court decision can affect future State submissions of electoral votes.

The Framers got this clause right. They kept Congress out of the Presidential voting process, and the President out of the vote counting process.

Oh, and there is no room for Scotus either.
