I believe there’s a process.

Legal stuff kinda works that way.

That argument most certainly could be made....in court, yes?

Violations of the constitution are absurd?

The next step for supporters of the President is to look ahead to when Congress meets on Jan. 6. I remain confident that the President will begin his second term on Jan. 20.

The Constitution establishes the Supreme Court as the national judiciary.

If you don't support that, even when they decide something you don't like, then you're not supporting the Constitution.

This isn't overly complex.

I disagree.

Many lawyers disagree.

Changing voting rules sans the state legislation is what is happened.

Just because no court has ruled that there were no violations

But they weren't the judges, were they?

If Paxton had sued Texas he might have had a case.

Governor Greg Abbott today issued a Proclamation extending the early voting period for the November 3rd Election by nearly a week. Under this proclamation, early voting by personal appearance will begin on Tuesday, October 13, 2020, and continue through Friday, October 30, 2020.
