What Happens When?

 The Bush/Gore Presidential election took a month to decide the winner. Trump is vowing confusion in this election with Russian dressing on the side in interference again too. His postal service stunt is his latest corruption abuse of Presidential powers to benefit him after we have had 240 years of no interference in our postal service valued by 90% of all Americans. Trump even boldly proposes delaying the election despite a Federal Law saying you can't do that. Many of our Presidents including Hillary have Law degrees and know the law and would never suggest such an abuse of power. 

There is a status that Congress passed that if there is not any winner produced in a state, then it is permissible for the State Legislature to nominate a winner. That can be disturbing in swing states such as battleground states controlled by Republican Legislatures like Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina and Wisconsin. Some of these states have Democrat Governors so their decision can rule.  Article 3 of the United States Constitution says, "Whenever any State has had an election...and has failed to make a choice on the day prescribed by law, the electors may be appointed on a subsequent day in such a manner as the legislature of such State may direct." This time it will occur on January 6th when the new Congress is there to decide which electors to consider. There is every reason to believe that the new Congress will be in Democratic hands. 

It is an elaborate procedure in every state to resolve disputes. All of the efforts that Trump is making to delay the election is false since the date of the election is set at November 3rd. So now he is tampering with the postal service to eliminate the on time mailings of sent in ballots. He is trying to instill chaos into our election as he has done with our health, wealth and now the safety of our children in schools. Bottom line at noon on January 20th if there has not been a new President elected, Nancy Pelosi the Speaker of the House of Representatives becomes President of the United States. Anyone who dares to dispute her Presidency including Bill Barr will be risking becoming a convicted felon because at that point the Trump appointees would no longer have their powers either since his time in office is over.
