"Then too, the State instructs its electors that they have no ground for reversing the vote of millions of its citizens. That direction accords with the Constitution—as well as with the trust of a Nation that here, We the People rule.”

Justice Clarence Thomas said the basis of the Court’s decision should be the Tenth Amendment, which reserves all powers and right to the states not expressly given to the federal government — including the power to patrol electors. bit.ly/3gBA6hT

[#ElectionManipulation] has always been high on the list of Democratic party priorities. That is why you saw HR1, which would make everything you saw in this election legal.
