I have a book on the 1876 election in my TBR pile, but I am wondering if I remember the situation correctly.
Wasn’t there a few different elector slates sent in from the same states?
I stumbled across a mention of the contested election being worse than the allegations of 2020, and I bought the book but never got around to starting it yet.
You bring up a good point, but what happens if say, Texas ends up with TWO sets of electors presented via a split state government? Wasn’t that the reason they made the law?
I am going to go home and dig the book out the pile tonight, but trying to remember the set up of it.
This the book I was talking about
By One Vote: The Disputed Presidential Election of 1876

So, will this PROHIBIT the Democrat Party’s scheme to recalculate states’ Electoral College results using only the national percentages (national popular vote) numbers?
ALL THE USUAL SUSPECTS...................
I don't see the word 'one' in your original statement, which is why I rarely respond to your posts.
All the usual suspects. That's why I know this bill is bad for us all.
Yep
None of that list of jokers can be trusted with a burned-out match.
Over the history of our country, there have been at least 700 proposed amendments to modify or abolish the Electoral College - more than any other subject of Constitutional reform.
