(CNN)Two judges in Pennsylvania on Friday tossed a half dozen court cases the Trump campaign had brought to invalidate thousands of votes around Philadelphia, where voters carried President-elect Joe Biden to a clear win in the battleground state. In total, the Trump campaign had sought to throw out almost 9,000 absentee ballots because their outer envelopes lack names, dates or addresses or some combination of the three that voters could have filled out. In five related cases, Judge James Crumlish of Philadelphia County's Court of Common Pleas said the Trump campaign couldn't invalidate 8,329 ballots it alleged were improper. The judge ruled those ballots should be processed and counted. In another case, the President's campaign sought for the Montgomery County Board of Elections to throw out 592 mail-in ballots where voters hadn't filled out their addresses on the outside envelopes. Those ballots will be counted, the second judge, Richard Haaz of the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas, ruled on Friday. Haaz found that state law didn't require voters to fill out the address sections on the envelopes, and the instructions on the ballots didn't tell voters they must fill them out. "Voters should not be disenfranchised by reasonably relying upon voting instructions provided by election officials," Haaz wrote. The Trump campaign had said in court that it wasn't alleging voting fraud in the cases -- just attempting to enforce the rules. Though the ballots numbered in the thousands, they would not be enough for Trump to overcome Biden's win in Pennsylvania, even if all were Trump votes. Also, Michigan judge rejects demand to block certification of Biden win in Detroit and debunks fraud claims. But...best of all, Rudy Guiliani is running Trump's campaign to invalidate the election...perfect. I mean what could go wrong with Bull****tin' Rudy in charge? :) -- *Lock Trump Up!* |

I haven't read of any of these spurious attempts of Trump getting anywhere in the appellate process, have you? I think I read that judges in Arizona are telling Trump's lawyers to take a walk. Your boy Trump lost, Bilious, and he lost big time in the Electoral College and in the popular vote. I do hope some serious efforts can bet underway to start getting rid of the Electoral College. Hey, there's a small demonstration in DC of Trump protestors...kinda funny to watch, because most of them apparently have no idea what they are doing. Lots of white racist nationalists. Your boys Sean Hannity and Alex Jones are supportive. In two months and a week, Trump will be out. Good riddance. -- *Lock Trump Up!* |

By congressional district and the overall popular vote in the state gets the two senate votes. |

The people elect their Senators and Congressmen. The state governing body chooses the electors. The state can choose how they select the electors. The electors in most states, do not have to vote for their candidate. California electors only have to vote for their candidate on the first two ballots. After that they are free to choose.

Trump's lawyers in his cases to "overturn" election results are getting their asses kicked by lawyers who are not impressed by the arguments and lack of evidence being presented. I think Trump is running scared...his protection from federal criminal indictments ends 20 January and of course the states are free to pursue him, as they are. I presume Trump can resign a couple of days early and have Pence pardon him of any or all federal crimes, as Gerry Ford did for Nixon, but that's no defense against state charges. Oh, and if Trump, after being tossed out on the curb, tries to sell any secret or classified info to raise cash, he can be charged and prosecuted for treason. Last photos I saw of Trump showed him without his orange makeup and hair dye. I got a haircut last week and asked the lady doing the cutting how long she thought it took each day for Trump to have his remaining hair combed over and sprayed, and his makeup applied, and she said "about an hour."

Trump's lawyers in his cases to "overturn" election results are getting the glass? their asses kicked by lawyers who are not impressed by the arguments and lack of evidence being presented. I think Trump is running scared...his protection from federal criminal indictments ends 20 January and of course the states are free to pursue him, as they are. I presume Trump can resign a couple of days early and have Pence pardon him of any or all federal crimes, as Gerry Ford did for Nixon, but that's no defense against state charges. Oh, and if Trump, after being tossed out on the curb, tries to sell any secret or classified info to raise cash, he can be charged and prosecuted for treason. Last photos I saw of Trump showed him without his orange makeup and hair dye. I got a haircut last week and asked the lady doing the cutting how long she thought it took each day for Trump to have his remaining hair combed over and sprayed, and his makeup applied, and she said "about an hour." Crikey. Herring's president at work, eh? They deserve each other. -- *Lock Trump Up!* You got a fringe cut. Hair cut implies that you have a mostly full head of hair.

There is a case to be made that the 14th amendment would extend the federal "immunity" of a presidential pardon to the state laws. As far as I know it has never been litigated and this is just the guy to do it ... with a "constitutionalist" friendly SCOTUS. |
