Again, the Constitution makes no mention of individual citizens voting in a popular election for president. The votes were duly cast by Electors, counted, and recorded.

Remember when Trump wanted some state legislatures to appoint Electors that would vote for him rather than according to the popular vote count?

He did not succeed in this. The votes were cast by the Electors, counted, recorded, and Biden was inaugurated. Too late now. No court is going to entertain this, nor should it.

And I would argue that the Legislatures of Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Arizona could have done exactly that - but they didn't. They didn't even convene to discuss it.

Let’s cut to the chase: Do you think we have free and fair elections in this country?
