The judge is correct.We either follow the Constitution as it is written or we make it up as we go, like the Democrats want to do.
Yea, the constitution says nothing about not voting hundreds of times per person so we don’t really know the founders’ intent.

Maybe pence planned the “insurrection” that wasn’t an insurrection? Per usual, the ,eft are going after the wrong person
