If they can delay the count for so long, then delay the recounts for so long they can prevent certification by the state legislated days. What happens if an election never gets certified? My understanding the electors will be chosen by the state legislatures. They will file suits in GOP controlled states, enough to over turn the election. Meanwhile, there is no way that trials would ever finish in time. It is simple playing out the clock. His people will be fine with it since they already believe that the election is stolen.

Will it work? It is really up to the courts. Would they put a stay on certifying the election without some real evidence?

Interesting scenario, never thought of this. I have to believe Biden's lawyers have put this in their "risk register" and have/will formulate a defense.
