A lawsuit disputing the results of the 2024 election has moved forward after it was revealed that former Vice President Kamala Harris received no votes a New York county.
I can see how it looks like I'm saying that I'm not advocating that at all. I just want to make sure that people understand this isn't a direct path to change.
Even a direct admission will not change anyone's mind. You are at best removing a couple of easy outs** for them to lie and say that's not how it is. In the end they're just going to lie and say that it's not real.
It'll be satisfying. It might make some already engaged people a little more engaged, But it isn't **in itself going to drive the needle we're going to need more.
I think the best outcome would be that it might uncover deliberate malfeasance that might prompt some folks in congress to do what is needed. I wouldn't be optimistic though.
Slightly more likely is that such discovery would drive the public towards a congressional swing away from his enablers at the next congressional election next year, assuming we have it. I'm moderately more optimistic on that, apparently such a swing is already forming, but to what extent isn't clear.
We can't undo the election results, the congressional count done on jan 6 is definitive.
Even if this is true, I don’t think they’re going to find the number of votes to change any outcome. Didn’t Trump win by like 3 million votes? Maybe this could have flipped an electoral college vote, but would that have even mattered?
Even if it's not isolated, how do you move forward after this unless someone involved confesses and gives up other areas involved? Maybe they weren't dumb enough to be this obvious in other spots.
Ideally, you start demanding recounts But I can't imagine that votes are properly taken care of after the fact especially in this case.
But then if we find mass wrongdoing in counts, now it's a court thing, It goes to SCOTUS. Are they going to side with him? Frankly, there's no way. It's going to be authoritarian dictatorship or coup I don't think there's any other viable directions this could go.
I think something like this where the fuck up gets noticed could be done at the poll level to some extent. Orders from above how to it, and this one person or area may have just fucked it up.
So these people would probably fuck things up again, but people at a different poll could do it properly.
