If it were, Super Bowl I would still be bouncing around in the courts.

(33,164 posts)trying, apparently, for a repeat of the Bush vs. Gore fiasco.
However, it's also clear that not one of them is in any way studied up on how B v G went down. They only know the outcome and not how it came about. They're not big on process anyway.
There was a process in B v G. Weak as water in most respects, but, there was logic, argument, and evidence.

(182,829 posts)Pennsylvania and the "nonzero number of people" he has watching the count

Their argument: GOP observers had been barred from the rooms where the votes were being counted.
Republican observers were there, after all. Trump had a nonzero number of people in the room, one of his attorneys conceded in federal court Thursday evening.
Im sorry, then whats your problem? asked U.S. District Judge Paul S. Diamond, who denied the request to halt the count.

And by the way, who uses terms like "non-zero number of people"?

(7,901 posts)Zero evidence = Zero proof. Hearsay is not evidence. Hearsay that there was Hearsay isn't either. Neither is an unsigned, undated, un-witnessed hand scrawled post-it note. There is no evidence of a crime or problems with the count or the ballots on a scale commensurate with the crime alleged.

The only votes that should be counted are the ones that will put Fatsolini back in the Oval Office for his much deserved second term.
Every other vote is an illegal vote, especially if the vote is for Biden.
