Electoral College Deadlines Not Set In Stone, The Epoch Times

CS Commentary: PA, AZ, and GA could still be in play up until Dec 14, the Electoral College vote…legislators in all the battleground states are still working to de-certify the Biden vote, the problem is that most State legislatures have already adjourned for the year and they need a majority petition to re-convene in a Special Session. It could still happen, but Never Trump Republicans, like the GA Governor and other Legislator leaders in multiple states are preventing it so far…

Today is Safe Harbor Day (last day for states to appoint electors), but the date may not be as important as some think, because its stipulated by Federal Code, not the Constitution…there is even question about whether the specific day of Dec 14, Electoral College Vote is binding…some are saying that the election can be overturned anytime before Jan 20, Inauguration Day.

Why would Democrat Governors or Secretary’s of State even want such machines and software for voter tabulation?

Quote: “The three largest voting manufacturing companies — Election Systems &Software, Dominion Voting Systems and Hart InterCivic — have acknowledged they all put modems in some of their tabulators and scanners. The reason? So that unofficial election results can more quickly be relayed to the public. Those modems connect to cell phone networks, which, in turn, are connected to the internet… For election systems to be online, even momentarily, presents a serious problem, according to Appel. “Once a hacker starts talking to the voting machine through the modem, the hacker cannot just change these unofficial election results, they can hack the software in the voting machine and make it cheat in future elections,” he said.” [bold italics ours]

What Must Trump’s Team Do To Win and Overturn The Media’s Coronation of ‘President-Elect’ Biden? Updated 12/04/20

At present, President Trump needs 38 electoral votes which means overturning 3 states: Pennsylvania and 2 other states, like Georgia and Wisconsin.

With lawsuits filed in multiple states on the legitimacy-illegitimacy of Mail-in ballots at present, Trump’s team must continue to pursue advocacy in state and then federal courts and reverse at least 2 state elections for President Trump to increase the chances the Supreme Court will hear a case (which usually only happens if the election can be shown to be at stake or in question).

As these work their way up the ladder of the state and federal court system the hopeful result is an appeal to the Supreme Court wherein one would expect the Court to take the case under consideration (this in an investigatory and court process that would normally take a year or more). All of this – including any Supreme Court decision – must occur by December 8, known as ‘Safe Harbor Day.’ This is the last day before December 14, the day the Electoral College votes, that States can change their elector appointments.

Once the Supreme Court decides on the merits of such a case, the election could be officially overturned – if Trump’s team wins the case. However, even if Trump’s team does win the case it would be up to the individual State Legislatures to uphold the Supreme Court decision by appointing electors who would vote for President Trump.

Another decision tree to overturn the election is the Trump attorney appeal to battleground State legislatures. The US Constitution gives State Legislatures the power to determine the election process and to appoint electors to vote for the President. If State Legislatures feel that the election has been stolen they could independently (according to some attorneys) – of Governors, the people, and the courts – appoint new electors more reflective of the vote they believe took place. Others say that Legislatures would have to hold lengthy evidentiary hearings before making such a decision – and there is not time. Again, this must take place by December 8.

If for some reason this did not occur and no one candidate received 270 or more electoral votes, the decision on who would become President would be kicked to Congress, specifically, to the (newly elected) House of Representatives on January 6, 2021.

Further, according to Sydney Powell (see Howie Carr video 11/22/20 Politics Page), lawsuits in Georgia and Michigan were filed this week on the Dominion-Smartmatic Voting Fraud issue (as well as Mail-in Ballot fraud) – a national case. It appears these were filed directly at the Federal level, skipping the time consuming local process. However, according to Alan Dershowitz, Harvard Law Professor, the burden of proof is high and the chances of overturning the election are slim – whether with this case or with the more general Mail-in Ballot fraud cases (see Yellow Box below for more).

On the other hand, this is a civil case and the standard of proof in civil cases is ‘preponderance of the evidence’ not ‘beyond a reasonable doubt.’

Increasing the chances of all cases getting to the Supreme Court is that on November 20 – Joe Biden’s birthday – Trump appointed Constitutional Supreme Court justices (Barrett, Kavanaugh, Alito, and Thomas) over Federal court circuits in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.

If the Dominion voting fraud was proved before a Federal or the Supreme Court as taking place in multiple states (at least 3, totaling 38 electoral votes) and bringing question to enough votes to overturn the election in those states, Trump would win as long as electors upheld the decision. Again, the evidentiary standard is high even though this is a civil case.

Again, if the case is not proved, but no one gets 270 Electoral votes on December 14, the election would go to the House, in what is called a ‘Contingent Election’.

Even if VP Biden were to win 270 Electoral votes in the Electoral College on December 14, President Trump still has one remaining chance to be re-elected (per Newsmax video at the top of this page).

When Congress confirms the Electoral College vote on January 6, if one member of Congress objects to any state’s Electoral vote, they can challenge. If their challenge is supported by one member from the other House (the Senate, for example) Congress must adjourn and discuss the challenge for at least 2 hours, then re-convene and vote on whether to accept or deny the challenge.

In this manner, Biden could be denied the Electoral votes to win in Congress, thus, again forcing a Contingent Election. However, it is extremely unlikely that this scenario would take place. Challenges must be voted on in a roll-call vote of Congress and both houses must accept the challenge for the electoral votes to be denied. This is unlikely to occur in a Democrat-controlled House of Representatives, which would most likely not deny Biden electoral votes, giving the victory to him and not President Trump.

Therefore, President Trump’s most likely – and one remaining path to victory at present – is the refusal of battleground State legislatures to certify state electors, thus deadlocking the Electoral College, denying Biden a majority, and forcing Supreme Court decisions relative to the validity of state electors. This could also result in a Contingent Election in Congress. With a one-vote per state Contingent Election process and 26 Republican controlled versus 23 Democratic controlled states, one would expect President Trump to emerge triumphant on or around January 6.

Quote: “…non-partisan effort by unpaid citizens and volunteer experts. Our only objective is to play a small roll in helping assure that all legal PA votes are counted, and that only legal PA votes are counted…There are some major statistical aberrations in the PA voting records, that are extremely unlikely to occur in a normal (i.e. un-manipulated) setting. The anomalies almost exclusively happened with the Biden votes [emphasis CS].”

Attorney Sydney Powell Files Lawsuit Against Georgia Governor and Sec. Of State For Election Fraud – Copy of Filing

Quote: “An analysis of the Dominion software system by a former US Military Intelligence expert concludes that the system and software have been accessible and were certainly compromised by rogue actors, such as Iran and China…The failure of the Dominion software “to meet the methods and processes for national standards for managing voting system problems and should not be accepted for use in a public election under any circumstances…where he recorded [Dominion Rep] Eric Coomer representing: “Don’t worry. Trump won’t win the election, we fixed that.”…This margin of victory in the election [in Georgia] for Mr. Biden was only 12,670 and cannot withstand most of these criticisms [relative to both mail-in ballots and voting system fraud] individually and certainly not in aggregate [CS Emphasis ours].”

CS Commentary: What is the standard of proof? ‘Preponderance of the evidence’ (civil) – not ‘beyond a reasonable doubt’ (criminal). “The Georgia Supreme Court has made clear that Plaintiffs need not show how the [] voters would have voted if their [absentee] ballots had been regular. [] only had to show that there were enough irregular ballots to place in doubt the result.” Conclusion? “Georgia’s November 3, 2020 General Election remains under a pall of corruption and irregularity that reflects a pattern of the absence of mistake [emphasis CS]. At best, the evidence so far shows ignorance of the truth; at worst, it proves a knowing intent to defraud.”

What is ‘absence of mistake’? In this context, what the suit is saying is that the defendants being accused in the suit – the Governor, Secretary of State, etc. did not make a mistake – circumstances and witnesses show that they had to know they were placing the election in a place where fraud could easily be committed and the outcome would be changed.

Timeline to Certify The Election and Elect a New President, updated 11/28/20

States Certify Election Results – Different state to state, late November and early December

Last Day For States to Resolve Election Disputes and Appoint New Electors — December 8

Electors in Electoral College Cast Their Ballots — December 14

President of the Senate receives Electoral Vote Certificates – December 23

*Congress counts Electoral Votes (sitting VP presides) – January 6*

*[If neither candidate receives 270 Electoral votes on December 14, a joint session of the new Congress convenes January 6 – the House votes for President, one vote per state; Senate votes for Vice-President, one vote per Senator. At present, after the 2020 election, State legislatures are overwhelmingly Republican, with a majority of anywhere from 29 to 31 states, depending on the source. But, party representation in the House is apparently only 26 Republican, with one neutral state.]

Inauguration Day – January 20

[If a Presidential candidate is not declared by this date, the VP-Elect becomes interim President. If a VP-Elect has not been decided, the (newly elected) Speaker of the House becomes interim President.]
