How to "Legally Cheat" in the Election

(Sort Of) November 05, 2024 [WEBSITE]( | [UNSUBSCRIBE]( It is legally possible in the US election. Here’s why. (And why you shouldn’t worry.) How to "Legally Cheat" in the Election JAMES ALTUCHER Dear Reader, There's something weird about our Constitution that nobody talks about. It's not about voter fraud or rigged machines - it's about actual legal ways the election results could theoretically be changed after the fact. I talked about this today on my latest [podcast](. Let me break it down. (And show you whether or not it’s likely.) As you know, when you vote for president, you're not really voting for president. You're actually voting for a bunch of electors who then vote for president. Each state gets a certain number of these electors based on their size. Win the state, win all its electors (except in Maine and Nebraska). But there are loopholes to “legally cheat”. Loophole #1: The State Legislature Slowpoke According to the Constitution (I've read it, not fun), state legislatures have TOTAL POWER over how electors are chosen. They don't technically have to follow the popular vote. But here's the really sneaky part: there's no strict timeline for when states have to submit their electors. So theoretically, a state could just... not send them in time. If enough states did this, you wouldn't need 270 electoral votes to win anymore - you'd just need a majority of whatever electors actually showed up to vote. Loophole #2: The 14th Amendment Twist This one's specifically relevant to certain candidates who've been impeached for insurrection. The 14th Amendment (added after the Civil War) says if you've "engaged in insurrection," you can't hold federal office. [WARNING: The National Guard Is On Standby]( The elites are sounding the alarm… The National Guard is preparing for civil unrest… And the “Election Meltdown” that Jim Rickards believes could kick off civil unrest and potentially send the stock market crashing down by 50% has arrived. Most of the country isn’t prepared for what’s coming next. But getting the details on the shocking change to Jim’s “Election Meltdown” thesis could put you in a very powerful position by the time the final votes are counted. [WATCH NOW: ELECTION MELTDOWN – YOUR FINAL MOVE]( Why These Loopholes Probably Won't Matter I've spent years studying systems that can break - markets, businesses, economies. The American election system is like a really old car. It's got some weird quirks, but it basically works. These loopholes exist, but using them would be like trying to cheat at poker in front of a thousand cameras. Technically possible, practically insane. I’ll explain why, and show you what will happen if Democrats wave the “insurrection” card, on my podcast. [Check the full version out here](.
