So, is it over?
Not really. Game is NOT over.
So the votes have been counted and accepted by congress?
Electoral College hands country to socialists.
Yep. It was pretty much over once the COVID-19 lockdowns started.
Here’s how I see it since the swing states now have DUELING SLATE of ELECTORS:
The Electoral Count Act (ECA) of 1887 says each chamber of Congress will separately decide which slate of ‘dueling electors’ to accept.
The new congress that will be sworn in on January 3 will be the ones doing the count.
The Senate would vote for the Vice President. Republicans currently hold the Senate.
The House of Representatives would choose the President however it is not one vote per lawmaker like it is in the senate.
The House in each state gets one vote and with the new Congress, Republicans will have the advantage with 27 of the state delegations – a candidate needs 26 votes to win the White House.
If the two chambers disagree, we could end up in uncharted territory, though experts typically say that electors approved by each state’s “executive” should prevail.
The Electoral Process is over.
But, IT AIN’T OVER, YET.
That doesn't sound like what I've been hearing.
I suspect they are saying it so that it sounds like it's a done deal and if it gets overturned, then it's a coup by Trump and he *stole* the White House.
The media are corrupt, immoral liars and trying to decide for us who is going to rule over us.
‘So the votes have been counted and accepted by congress?’
certified in Congress on Jan 6, I believe...
“Rage, rage against the dying of the light”
No, not over.... the next round emerges.
Consume a generous dose of an adult beverage.
One of my favorite quotes.
More fake news...
Until the votes are validated by the joint session of congress on Jan 6, counted by VP Pence, and all disputes redressed and remedied pursuant to the laws of the constitution... ah, no.
All that happened today is the EC delegates dropped their votes in the ballot box.
The ballot box gets emptied and are then transmitted to congress.
Then on Jan 6, the ballots are opened, counted and if challenged, are contested until resolved as described above.
That depends.
In FR’s shrinking and unpopular “Reality-based Community” it’s over.
In FR’s seemingly growing “Fantasy-based Community” there are still many, many avenues to re-election for President Trump.
So, is it over?
No they don't.
RE: No they don’t.
So, it’s official then, Joe Biden is the President?
