9. There are no penalties in the law.

The only possible ramification is if the courts order that she ascertain and she refuses, then she could be held in contempt.

5. Once the Official State electoral certifications reach 270...

...she will have no legal standing. If she persists in denying the Ascertainment, the Biden Team will sue the GSA* to sign-off on Ascertainment, and will win handily.

Emily Murphy, who is a partisan, lying, sack-of-shit will claim she is just trying to do the right thing. Which is bullshit.

You notice, that Murphy does not answer any questions, ESPECIALLY the question about whether or not she has discussed the Ascertainment, or lack thereof, with ANYONE in the White House. Murphy knows once she answers, she could be subject to legal sanctions, as she is an attorney, after all.

6. She will quietly roll over

And just sign the document in the dead of night hoping everyone just forgets.

I am thinking the Thanksgiving weekend will give her a nice cover to hope no one notices. So let's predict Wednesday afternoon.
