It's Bush v. Gore all over again.
Gore won Florida. There was no doubt about it. It was announced.

Then someone started fiddling with numbers in databases. That cast enough doubt to let the Republicans seize the talking point. They started trumpeting Bush as the winner.

Then it was decided in a packed court instead of actually counting the damn votes.

The only difference is that this time the deciding vote at the State Supreme Court is going to be the candidate who is actually stealing the election.

4. I think it's too late.
The American system is dead. It's time to let the corpse rot.

5. Badgers aren't known for giving up easily
After the reckless demonstration and disdain for the law that Scott Focker has shown, I would hope he and his cronies are as worthy of an investigation as these magical "ballots" that have suddenly appeared after closing time.

Like a drunk guy trying to break in your back door after dark.
