Lawman 0 posted:Can't pelosi just say "no gently caress you cheater you don't get a seat?" absolutely not. the states have complete control over their own elections unless the constitution forbids something, like “changing the voting age” or “taking the vote away from black people.” and even those can be ignored if the states try hard enough. they could decide the seat by votes and dogfighting and pelosi couldn’t do anything to stop it
