    Ernest question, are there any examples of judges having to force election boards to seat, Republicans in contested seats?

      Well there was this one presidential election…

        Fair enough, but I don’t recall it being so much contested (or Gore refusing to concede) but rather that SCOTUS stepping in before the recount was complete.

        Ensuring close elections are accurately called is understandable, simply refusing to accept the results is another.

        I haven’t yet read the article, but my money is on the latter in this case.
