after a recount determined that kennedy had won the state, kennedy's electors sent a third set of certificates. that's the set that the governor of hawaii ultimately certified and john kennedy became president. the question is, were kennedy's alternate electors raided by the feds at hardees even though their candidate was losing? were their communication subpoenaed? no. in fact a state judge endorsed what the kennedy electors had done. he said by turning an alternative election certificate, even when losing in the vote count, kennedy's electors, all democrats, that's how the system works. after the 2020 election, trump electors in numerous states used virtually the same language as kennedy's hawaii electors had used in 1960, but this time these were not alternate electors, they were criminals. this is part of a criminal plot to overthrow the u.s. government, insurrectionists, trying to interfere with the real electors. as of five years ago, interfering with the work of real electors, it was your patriotic duty. remember this? nobody remembers anything. we have google on this show. we recall as
