COMMENTARY


By Peter Navarro - - Tuesday, August 8, 2023

OPINION:


To understand history is to understand just how outrageous the latest indictment of Donald Trump is. President Biden‘s uber-partisan and ultra-weaponized Department of Justice asserts that Mr. Trump committed fraud for using the Electoral Count Act of 1887 to object to a stolen 2020 election. In fact, the act was created exactly for such a purpose.

In the 1876 presidential election, Democrat Samuel Tilden won the popular vote against Republican Rutherford B. Hayes. However, Tilden was one shy of the 185 electoral votes needed to beat Hayes, even as evidence surfaced of fraud and intimidation of Republican voters in several battleground states. Sound familiar?

Because the Constitution didn’t provide clear guidelines on resolving the dispute, Congress set up a bipartisan Electoral Commission. Voting along party lines, the commission handed the election to Hayes after ruling that 20 electoral votes in four contested states would go to him.

To ensure that such a bitter dispute wouldn’t be repeated, Congress passed the 1887 Act. It gave states the power to certify their electoral votes; and, most relevant to Mr. Trump’s phony indictment, set up a procedure allowing objections.

If at least one House member and one senator objected to a state’s vote, the House and Senate would separately debate the objection for up to two hours and then vote on it. If no candidate received a majority of electoral votes, the election would be decided by the House of Representatives, with each state delegation having one vote.
