“Republicans in PA are all talk.”

You are so right. I’ve emailed my state representative at least four times to demand that he stop the certification of the PA results and join others to send an alternative set of electors. He’s never responded.

His priorities are opposing Wolf’s efforts to impose more taxes on natural gas and his support for some kind of mush about getting the parties to work together to pass legislation to help with social problems. Nothing about stopping the steal, or, the perennial issue that Republicans have ducked for decades in Pennsylvania—eliminating property taxes that are some of the most onerous in the country and have outside observers labeling Pennsylvania one of the worse states for retirees.

My representative, by the way, is named Jim Struzzi. A more useless, cowardly individual I have never met. He’s a RINO in spades. He was one of the wusses who withdrew his name from a letter calling for action against the steal. He claimed the inclusion of his name was a “clerical error.”

Yes. I did see that and followed it. Unfortunately, some bogus numbers have bounced around before. I was looking for the sources they used. DoS/SURE record system.

If people keep bringing this up and delving into it further, there’s gonna be riots! Riots and mayhem! Better to let it go. John Roberts would approve.

But the AP has declared Biden the winner. YouTube attached that notice to every single video even mentioning the election for months

The left thinks they are home free on getting Biden installed. Maybe they are, but I believe more than a few Patriots have been awakened as to the danger heading towards our nation. The left and their sponsors, China, thought now was the time to strike before Trump weakened them even more.

I believe they had planned on Hillary in 2016 to complete their march through our institutions, and their goal was 2020 to complete their take over. Trump being elected in 2016 thwarted their plans so they had to ramp things up a bit for 2020.

The situation as it stands is that the executive branch has the authority to conduct the election of the Electors, and the judicial branch has (de facto) the authority to rewrite the rules for the conduct of the election of the Electors.

This contrasts with the US Consitutional mandate that .

Article II Section 1:
Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.
Constitutionally, the legislature has “plenary power” (as SCOTUS would put it) to actually name the individuals who will be the state’s electors.

When the executive modifies the rules set by the legislature, and the judiciary swears to it, they are trampling the US Constitution.

But as long as the legislature mandates election of the Electors, the judiciary has an opening by which to become, in conjunction with the executive, the actual determining body of how the Electors get chosen - and thus who become Electors.

The solution, IMHO, is for the Legislature to pony up a mechanism which is not an election by which the preference of the “voters” is submitted to the legislature to inform its decision. Granted that the decision of the legislature would be shaped by the political coloration of the legislature, that is no worse than the decision being shaped - outright controlled - by the political coloration of the exectutive and judicial branches.

It has the signal virtue that the political coloration of the Legislature is, under the US Constitution, supposed to the political lens thru which the popular will is expressed. Not the governor - and certainly not the judiciary.

Well this sure sounds like a surefire, simple, basic, concrete proof. Too bad no one has standing to do anything about it...
