Can this block the state from certifying the rest of the counties in the state?
Don’t know. But where are the Trump people on all this? Are they sleeping?
Allegheny County also delayed recertification till Dec. 12.
No. If re-counts delay the state's certification past the December 13 deadline for certification specified by the constitution, the state legislature is empowered to appoint their own slate of electors.
These electors would then cast the state's EVs when the Electoral College meets on December 19.
Inasmuch as the Republicans control both houses of the state legislature, you can be confident that Trump will be the recipient of these EVs.
For the record, Republicans also control both houses of the Wisconsin and Michigan legislatures. Thus, every state will be heard from in the Electoral College and Trump will get his 306 EV.
Some of the counties have already been cerified. The county who just stopped short was Allegheny. “Allegheny County officials have delayed certifying election results until next month.
The county’s board of elections met Monday morning to certify results, but recessed until Dec. 12, county spokeswoman Amie Downs said in a release. The delay will allow the board to “review and respond to petitions/affidavits” filed in the county regarding the results.”
