    “I guess they are trying to prepare for the 2024 elections? I don’t see how this stands – if the [board of elections] has no choice but to certify an election, then why require them to vote to certify the election?”

    How can you be this stupid? The law says “Shall Certify” (at least for now…)Certification is simply signing off that you’ve done your job and added up the numbers for your county correctly. The law is not saying you can choose to not certify the election if you think something is wrong. It is saying to get your damn job done by November 12th or you are in violation of the law.

    All these people want to do is tie things up long enough that the SCOTUS feels that they can step in and choose a winner, just like in 2000.
