FRiends | December 2,2016 | DollyCali

Posted on 12/02/2016 1:14:44 AM PST by DollyCali

WELCOME TO THE TRUMP FAMILY TRAIN

We are in the fourth week since the election until the Inauguration

The first THANK YOU rally last night in Cinti revealed another packed house of enthusiastic Americans supporting Donald J. Trump as he reviewed the election, shared more of his vision and made on appointment announcement (that is a secret) of Mad Dog Mattis. We are all anticipating this week will reveal the new SOS plus other key announcements.

Morning Pax!

I mentioned in one of my posts a week or two ago that I didn’t think the Trumps had a dog, but there is normally a WH dog, so wondered if they would get one. Saw a thread from this morning that they might. A friend of Trump’s showed the picture of a puppy she wanted him to have to Trump and Barron over Thanksgiving (apparently Barron got a big smile on his face). She named the dog Patton :-)
One of my friends had a labordoodle and it was such an adorable and good dog. This is a goldendoodle (retriever and poodle). Would be fun if Santa brought Patton to Barron for Christmas :-)

Meet Patton the Goldendoodle. Will he become Trump’s first dog?

Mornin’, Seattle Conservative!

Thank you for the links and what an adorable puppy!

If the Trumps get him or her wouldn’t it be fun for them to resume Laura Bush’s tradition of the Christmas doggie-cam?

A White House tour via puppy-cam might be a wild ride to watch!

:-)

You’re welcome. Oh, I had forgotten about the doggie cam - used to love those and normally watched them more than once on the internet and FNC usually showed them, too. Good ol’ Barney Bush.

Sending a list of elector names is not the same as sending the elector's ballots.

Not saying the election wasn't certified, or that a list of electors wasn't sent, but those two events don't conclusively determine the electoral vote.

Certification is a necessary precondition for recount, and simply signals a point in the process. If the margin is big enough, certification is effectively the end of the process, so we are conditioned to think of certification as conclusive even though it is not.

As for communications with the National Archive, See a timeline of key dates.

If a recount after certification were to change the outcome, which would change the list of electors, Congress would have one set of electoral ballots and presumably two sets of "Certificates of Ascertainment." I'd have to research to see how that might be handled, and I don't think such an event has ever happened.

Thanks for these details WildHighlander57, by any stretch of the imagination, the MI fiasco should end in about 1-hour. If not, probably time for some concern.........
