1) The latest demonic PR campaign is to try now to get the alternate electors from Arizona indicted. This is led by the hyenapickle phony AG Mayes.

2) The focus-grouped memo term they are using is "fake electors."

3) No such thing.

4) In 1960 (I won't review the circumstances again) Hawaii quickly certified one candidate and approved a set of electors that was sent in; but then the governor approved a different set and a recount led to a third set.

5) ALL reached the desk of the President of the Senate.

6) In that case, it was Richard Nixon, who had an incentive to accept the slate saying HE won. He took the recount, most recent, slate saying JFK won.

7) None of those were "fake." They were all legitimate because it is up to the Veep/President of the Senate to decide . . .

7) contd . . . what do do with COMPETING sets of electoral slates. COMPETING does not mean "fake." These are contested elections.

8) Once the Veep/Pres of Senate receives the slate(s), he can . . .

8) . . .a) accept them as is; b) reject them as fraudulent; or c) entertain a motion from the floor challenging them.

9) Has this happened? Abso-freakin-lutely.

10) In 1797 when the electors were being counted, Veep John Adams, one of the candidates with Thomas Jefferson . .

10) . . . received a slate (can't recall if it was from Georgia or New Hampshire) that was not legally written as the Constitution required.

11) When Adams came to this slate--which would have given the election to TJ---he stopped & waited for an objection from the floor.

12) After a few moments, when Jefferson or his allies did not object, he allowed the slate (for him) and won the election.

13) In 1800, Jefferson was veep and was counting and another incorrectly written slate arrived. Again, this would have cost TJ the election.

14) Unlike Adams, Jefferson did not allow any time for a challenge and won.

15) In 2021, the expectation was that Pence would NEITHER accept the so-called "legitimate" slates or reject the contested slates but would use the third option, entertain a motion from the floor to . .

15) contd . . . adjourn to the respective chambers and let Congress deal with it.

16) Botoxic's evil pus-spawns in the DemoKKKrat House would have taken 30 seconds to reject contested slates. But in the Senate, the thought was that the Senate would at least HEAR evidence . . .

16) contd . . . before handing the election to Rutabatga. (There was never, ever any chance Pence---contrary to hopes---would simply accept the contested electors over the Rutabaga electors, only that he would allow fraud evidence to be presented).

17) Again, the reality was that the Senate was never going to accept the contested electoral slates. The only hope was they would at least get to publicly expose the fraud.

18) Josh Hawley and a congressman (I forget who) had the objection ready. Then the crowds came in.

19) When Pence got around to counting, he never recognized Hawley or the congressman for their objections, betraying all those just a few days earlier he had promised he would do.

20) So the only thing "fake" in these discussions of electors are AGs like Mayes.
