“None of this is vague or seriously debatable.”
What is debatable is the idea that a state legislature can hold an official election and then tell the majority of the voters to go pound sand. Talk about voter disenfranchisement.
It is not only not debatable, it is laughable and extremely unconstitutional and will not pass muster for a minute.
You keep making these legal assertions but never cite any law. Just your sense of what's right.
It's very simple. Quote the passage in the Constitution that requires a vote of the people for President.
There's a full copy here, https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/constitution-transcript, and many other places. Go to it and copy and paste the passage that requires a vote into your next response, or admit that you don't know what you are talking about.
