why is this even a thing that can happen? People vote, person with more votes wins. Its simple. Why do they have to complicate it with shit like this?

This isn't about whether or not Biden still wins if Michigan flips this way. It's about the fact that a precedent gets set that states can choose to ignore what their voters voted for by failing to certify the results and pick themselves.
Thats always been the case. Faithless electors can vote against the people. Biden loses 16 and still wins.

We're talking about a state ignoring the will of their voters not one person going rogue.

sets a bad precedent.
the fact that this is even possible is problematic. It shouldnt be like this at all.

Who exactly is flying to DC? If it's state Republican party members that seems okay- but is it elected officials?

It will never get fixed. This is the GOP strategy going forward, and it will only take success one time to ensure that we never have another free and fair election.

that's basically my point. we need to be absolutely brutal in making sure everyone knows this is not acceptable, and that trying it again will cost you your freedom for the rest of your life. if not your life altogether.

Thats not how things work buddy. Theyre not just going to let trump stay in office and have biden be im limbo. We have a deadline for stuff like this and it will be met. Take a deep breathe and jusr relax.

At least you ackowledge it. Now what do you want to do about? How do you want to prevent it going forward?

Get rid of the electoral college

Which will never happen because it requires what? like 75% of states to agree and the EC massively favors Republicans so they never will

you are missing the point so badly i have to assume it's on purpose.

It's not the chance that the coup might succeed that's the major issue here. it's that so many people are not only ok with the attempt but actively encouraging it.
