About NC9 . . . . .

The latest is that there may be a new election called. Okay, maybe that's right. But if it is shown that the election was flipped due to the fraud, then might we not be better off - and better see justice served - by simply declaring the Democrat the winner and seating him.

I like that for another reason. If it is shown that Trump and Russia changed the federal election, then we should apply the same remedy.

Because the Democrat would not have been elected by the people.

I know I didn't approve SCOTUS deciding it wasn't necessary to bother counting the vote properly and just announcing Bush II would be president-elect.

Our democracy's on a slippery slope. Gotta haul it back to level ground, not give it another kick. Even if it did elect a Republican in this case.
