40. The election commission isn't considered a court of law per se, and doesn't have the right to

punish or convict anyone. All they can do is certify or not certify the election. They did not certify it, therefore the election happens again with the same candidates. That is actually good for us. The republicans want the primaries to be repeated so they can get another candidate, but hopefully that won't happen.

BTW, the election commission forwarded McCrae Dowless' name to the DOJ for prosecution for the 2016 election, but Trump's DOJ did absolutely nothing.
