To do what exactly? Break the law and stop counting the votes?

Nevada - Democratic governor
Pennsylvania - Democratic governor
North Carolina - Democratic governor
Arizona - Republican governor
Georgia - Republican governor

I don't believe that Trump is going to get any help from any of the first three I listed. It doesn't look like the last two are going out of their way to help Trump either.
