"They stole the election, so we must vote to stop them" is the MAGA version of "Trump is a fascist, let's vote to stop him from genociding the browns"
I wouldn't be surprised if they made that the actual result, laughed in our faces, and rhetorically asked "what are you gonna do about it?"
@spacemanspiff That's retarded. They were pissing, shitting and cumming because a bunch of hicks broke some windows of the Capitol
because they could make political hay out of it.
none of that changed the result. once they poison the well with the phony ballots, there's no getting them out.
@spacemanspiff The American voting system is pretty unsecure from my perspective, but the courts found nothing substantial that would change the results. Unlike with Gore who still had cases pending when the electoral college votes were cast and retrospectively should have probably been the president.
several recounts by gore-friendly newspapers failed to even conclude that he would have won florida.
but you touch on another important point - there's time between election and certification, but not so much that the "winning" party can't run out the clock. for a government employee to stall/stonewall you nine weeks over any sort of record is child's play. add in the holidays and it's indistinguishable from their usual incompetence.
@spacemanspiff Gore was a Democrat. Why couldn't the democratic party rig that election like they supposedly did for Trump? Gore ran on saving the planet, is there a better justification for election rigging than that?

so I want to be careful to not straw-man you here, but just because a republican has won an election from time to time doesn't mean they're above board. further, their ability to both do it, and to get away with it, has increased over time with their institutional capture and polarization of the public.
I'm in a "battleground" state, one that gets a LOT of attention. an acquaintance of mine is working the polls. he would gladly cheat, and probably will in some way.
