I'm no legal scholar. That's obvious because I still believe law has something to do with justice and rightness and the blindfolded Lady Justice Trey Gowdy talks about.

But late last night, I did some impatient digging and what I found was fascinating!

If you think this election is a bloody mess, may I introduce you to the fraudulent election of 1876: Rutherford B. Hayes vs Samuel Tilden.

As I understand it, Congress may set aside returns for "manifest fraud," which Stephen Siegel defines as fraud that is so notorious it does not require an investigation by Congress to ascertain.

Sound familiar??? Hence why the fraud is being allowed to play out til the bitter end. To make it as notorious and obvious as possible.

According to Stephen A. Siegel's book The Congressman's Guide to the Electoral Count Act of 1887, "To resolve the disputed election of 1876, Congress created an Electoral Commission with the 'same powers, if any, now possessed' by Congress to accept or reject electoral votes from the four states that submitted multiple packets of electoral votes from competing slates of electors."

In other words, both parties can send their own packets of Electoral Votes to Congress.

An Electoral Commission will then be created to vet the Electoral Votes.

Oh, it gets even better!

In 1960, Hawaiians voted in their first Presidential election. While a recount was still underway, the Republican Governor of Hawaii signed the certificate for the state's three Electoral College votes to be cast for Republican Presidential Candidate (and current VP) Richard Nixon.

Later the same day another certificate was signed, giving Democratic challenger John F. Kennedy Hawaii's three electoral votes as he had won the popular vote by a mere 115 ballots.

As VP and President of the Senate who must preside over the joint congressional session that processes the Electoral Votes, the choice came down to GOP Presidential Candidate Richard Nixon. The choice must've been torturous for him. Would he abide by the will of the people who wanted John F. Kennedy or award the Presidency to himself?

To his credit, he followed his conscience, not his ambition, and accepted the Democratic votes, thereby making John F. Kennedy the next President of the United States.

Mike Pence will be in Richard Nixon's shoes and like Nixon, he will also do the right thing and abide by the will of us, the American people. Happily, this means he will continue to serve as Vice President for the next four years.

If all that wasn't enough to boost your spirits, every Electoral Vote may be challenged if one Representative and one Senator join together to challenge it. Yet another, check-and-balance, if you will.

So take heart, Patriots! There is a great deal of flexibility inherent in the Electoral College process. It can be challenged at every step on its way to the Congress so our election can be protected. That's what it was intended to do. To protect.There are precedents in place to guide our legislators.

I hope this 10,000 foot view article has made you feel empowered. Call your Congressman because President Trump has won and he will be re-inaugurated on January 20th, 2021.
