(95,635 posts)Ever since Election Day, people have been fulminating about changing the rules or the process; it simply doesn't work that way, and "they cheated" isn't an allowable reason to revisit the results. Bush v. Gore had Standing before the Court because of Federal Legislation in compliance with Article 2, Section 3 as to when Electors' ballots needed to be submitted for Congressional review. There is no Constitutional provision that says an Election has to be "fair" because there's no Constitutional right to you having a chance to vote. Your State chooses to allow you to; if you felt the Election outcome was tainted, you arguably could have gone to State Court to demand a revote before the scheduled date of the Electoral College vote, but beyond that, there's no legal basis for the entire National Election to be invalidated. Former Law Professor Barack Obama doesn't say it's possible; Former Law Professor Elizabeth Warren doesn't say it's possible. NOBODY does. The Election was fully compliant with all provisions of the Constitution. If you disagree, tell us what SPECIFIC Constitutional provision or right was violated.
(FWIW - I HAVE studied Constitutional Law; I'm not making things up.)
