I see a couple scenarios:
-
Ballot investigation / recounts will reveal millions of votes, not just 50-100K. The problem will be systemic across multiple states. If individual Sates' procedures correct the issues, then Trump wins. If they ignore the issues, then its on to SCOTUS.
-
Moving the case to SCOTUS is very rare, but would be fully warranted if #1 plays out. Judge ACB's appointment is perfectly timed for this event, and obviously part of the Plan. In my mind the 3 possible outcomes of a SCOTUS decision could be:
3a) arbitrarily rule that the whole mail in ballot system is so packed with fraud that we must omit any ballots that came in after midnight Nov. 3. Dems would freak out, because POTUS would win.
3b) Stick with the original +3 days for mail-ins, but establish some kind of oversight process that is the same in all affected states. Forged or fucked-with ballots get eliminated, period, even if its not the fault of the voter. Both sides would hate this option because it is not very definitive. How to hide or eliminate all the dead-people votes? How to know if legitimate ballots were altered or left in a dumpster?
3c) re-run the election, either in some or all of the states. In-person voting only this time. Winner take all and no do-overs. POTUS would obviously win.
4) As I understand it, Congress has a procedure for picking the president if conditions are not met by some date in December. Other anons can clarify. This would be the worst possible outcome IMO.
