States count the votes and certify the results.

Let’s see how many lawyers they can find who are willing to risk disbarment to take these results to court…

Groups like Democracy Docket and the states themselves have been preparing for disruptors, and have handled them before in 2020, 2022, and 2024.

Ask Tina Peters or Kari Lake what happens if you reject the results…
