58. Two things...
Edited on Wed Dec-22-04 04:00 PM by mostly_lurking
First, Congress can't "create" a second set of Electors for Kerry. The Ohio EC would have to meet and submit a second set (and then Congress would have to vote on which set to accept). Otherwise, all Congress could do is throw out the Ohio electors and Bush would still win (266-252).

Second, how will evidence of "massive vote fraud" emerge in time for the January 6 session? The recounts have turned up nothing. Unless some discovery is made, through subpoena or other legal means, there will be no such evidence. Congress is not going to contest the Ohio votes w/o such evidence.
