'It can be done again': How Ted Cruz learned how to steal a presidential election
Raw StoryIf you’ve been paying any attention to the news the last few years, you might be just a tad concerned about maintaining our democracy and what seems to be a conservative fascist threat. For those of you who don’t remember, Bush v. Gore was the Supreme Court case that decided the 2000 election between Al Gore and Bush. The court’s party-line decision meant Bush won the election with a lead of five electoral votes and a popular vote deficit of.5 percent. Cruz announced he would represent Pennsylvania Republicans in challenging the state’s certification of election results but the Supreme Court threw that challenge out. Then Cruz supported the Texas AG’s argument that he could ask the Supreme Court to throw out election results in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin.
