In reply to the discussion: Clarence Thomas was 'key' to delaying certification of 2020 election, Trump lawyers said in emails [View all]Novara
(6,115 posts)40. And Wisconsin
Now, all three states have enough electoral votes to have fucked up the count if challenged, but Georgia had been solidly red for so long that it must have been seen as an easy target since it "suddenly" went blue.
In general, they were throwing shit at the wall and seeing what would stick. But I'm thinking that once they knew Thomas was in charge of the 11th Circuit, they saw their path forward there. Did the orange fuck and Graham call AZ and WI? They concentrated their efforts more on GA, and not the least because they already had Thomas in their pocket.

Completely agree, but what I don't see is anything that says Thomas agreed to do this

He really needs to be impeached and there is other evidence of corruption

"only way this could work was to then concentrate on Arizona (11 votes) and Pennsylvania (20 votes)"

He's the "key" all right. Waterboard him and Ginny and see what secrets come out...
