the claim was that both Illinois and Texas were stolen. I will say, I don't think it is true but their theory did involve enough such votes. It should be noted that the Ford campaign toyed with challenging the count in 1976 (Hawaii and Ohio) but decided against it due to Ford fearing that he would never be accepted as legitimate if he got put in without winning the popular vote, the EC, or having been elected nationally before.
