116. Vector, if you really want to have a Congressional investigation
of the 2004 election, or any kind of discussion or action on electoral reform in Congress, you better hope that there is no Senator who stands up on Jan 6th to challenge the election without hard proof of fraud.

Because once that happens, no Republican in Congress will be willing to cooperate with any Democrats on this issue. Not one. Since in order to launch a Congressional investigation or do anything about electoral reform you need at least a few Republicans to go along, neither of these things will be possible. So - for a couple of hours of grandstanding you're willing to give up on the issues that you claim you care about.
