thinks that trump will pull shenanigans in the upcoming election and the entire election won’t happen. I think he And Barr will use the civil unrest and his fabricated lies of electoral fraud to rob us of an election.

Legislatures could just vote to cancel elections and choose the electors.

This is a very real threat.

Choose how electors are chosen.

Declare state of emergency, can't hold election...

Legislatures vote to appoint electors.

Unlikely, but it is always there as long as we don't get rid of electoral college.

I wonder what they'd do if demonstrators started building a brick wall around it to make it even more "secure"?

Like symbolically creating a prison wall?
