Counties won in 2020:
Trump: 2,497
Biden: 477*
*under investigation
That doesn't mean the election was uncons utional.
The PA SCOTUS has been clear on what it thinks about mail-in ballots, I expect this ruling to go the same way as the other 10+.

Qhris dodges... what is it Qhris? Is it the SCOTUS that's going to overturn the election? spell it out.
Counties don't vote, people do.
I said all paths lead to SCOTUS just the other day

I'm not a stranger to this scheme, in fact I was briefly worried about the possibility. There was some discussion of it a week or two ago in this forum.
The fatal problem with the rogue elector scenario is that is that the states are bound to follow the law. They do have the power to change the manner of appointing electors, but not after election day.
Congress determines the timing of the appointment of electors:
Originally Posted by Article II, Section 1 of the US Cons ution
The Congress may determine the time of choosing the electors, and the day on which they shall give their votes; which day shall be the same throughout the United States.https://www.justsecurity.org/73274/n...-popular-vote/But Congress’s enactment of a uniform national Election Day under its own cons utional authority — which supersedes any contrary state actions — prohibits the choice of electors from being made based on elections held or laws passed after Election Day.
In other words, under the cons utional timing provision as implemented by federal law, the absolute last day a state legislature could have decided to appoint the state’s presidential electors for this election was November 3, 2020. Once that date passed, the determinative popular votes had all been cast, and therefore the legislature’s authority to change the state’s manner of appointing electors in 2020 passed as well.
Here's the federal law that gives effect to the timing clause:
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/3/1The electors of President and Vice President shall be appointed, in each State, on the Tuesday next after the first Monday in November, in every fourth year succeeding every election of a President and Vice President.
States debasing or diluting votes is uncons utional:
https://www.justsecurity.org/73274/n...-popular-vote/There is a second, independent reason state legislatures cannot cancel the popular vote results after Election Day: to do so would violate the Cons utional rights of the voters. Specifically, the Fourteenth Amendment to the Cons ution prohibits states from taking away their citizens’ rights without due process of law. One such right, of course, is the right to vote. And the Supreme Court has made clear many times, in more than a hundred years’ worth of precedents, that the cons utional right to vote does not just mean the right to put a ballot in a box, but also the right to have that ballot counted toward determining the election’s results. For a state legislature to invalidate a popular election would be equivalent to simply refusing to count the citizens’ votes. The Cons ution unambiguously prohibits disenfranchising any eligible voters, much less an entire state’s worth.
The above quoted finds support in this Supreme Court case:
https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/377/533/The right of suffrage is denied by debasement or dilution of a citizen's vote in a state or federal election.

paying people who cheated with checks. Gotta leave the bread crumbs for QAnon to follow
Smells like desperation
ONE ACRE, ONE VOTE
(Refuted in Reynolds v. Sims: "Legislators represent people, not trees or acres. Legislators are elected by voters, not farms or cities or economic interests.") https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/377/533/
Even dead people vote. (usually for Democrats)
Don't forget illegal aliens and pets vote too
No voter ID? No problem! Se habla espanol!
Well if the Abraham Lincoln was better at his job as vampire hunter, undead voting wouldn't be such a big issue. Republican have no-one but themselves to blame...
this is copium talking. Make your case.
No fraud was alleged by the Trump campaign in any of their court filings.
Oh lawdy!
Tick Tock
He copypasta'd Fareed's segment on CNN about rogue electors.

What are you going to do when Biden is inaugurated? Do you have a therapy session already reserved? Better hop on it.
I thought we discussed rogue electors at length in '16... heck, bunker was complaining about them like the whiny he's always been.
Hopefully there's a mass suicide of MAGA s tbh
Covid-19!!!!
I thought at some point even the most ardent of Trump supporters would relent... at some point. Guess not. If they cannot see at this point how ridiculous this assclown looks and sounds, there really is no hope for them. This is no longer a Republican versus Democrat line in the sand. This is reality versus acid trip Wonderland. If they continue to support and agree with his delusions, might as well hand them a cup of that Jim Jones kool-aid because there pretty much ain’t nothing going to change their allegiance.
Just based on how he’s handled the election results and just that alone, even ignoring his terrible handling of covid-19, Trump is the biggest embarrassment in American political history. Bar none. Why are there still loyalists hanging on his every word, let alone rallying around his stupidity?
Cultlike devotion. Trump is building a fascist political movement based on Trump and retaliation against anyone who has opposed him. Facts not supporting the fantasy and myth around Trump are not welcome in Trumplandia.
