The idea that states could be told that their votes would not be counted unless they redid the election, sued, or appointed alternative electors is a mindboggling crime against democracy.
The memo makes it clear why the FBI is knocking on doors and investigating the fake electors scheme. The plan doesn’t work without the fake electors to contest the outcome, the plan doesn’t work. The fake electors were critical to the scheme.
