•How Congress Could Upend the Election
72% Informative
Julian Zelizer : The biggest risk our democracy faces this election is whether the votes cast will even matter.
He says the biggest risk is the one we still have a chance to prevent: Congress overturning the election.
Trump 's desperation after losing the election led him to push to disallow votes everywhere he could, Zelizer says.
Trump may yet use Congress as a backup plan to overturn the election, he says.
Julian Zelizer : Imagine the election puts Kamala Harris in the lead, with 277 to Trump ’s 261 votes.
He says Pennsylvania decides to count mail-in ballots that are missing the required handwritten date on the envelope.
Trump challenges that practice, claiming that the Pennsylvania legislature has set rules that forbid counting those ballots.
Zelizer says Congress in 2022 foreclosed that independent congressional-determination route, and said that court decisions are binding on Congress .
