I absolutely read it, I was replying to the comment that "every state needs to help make Harris a clear winner" by pointing out that the Republicans literally already made it impossible to make Harris a clear winner in GA.

But ok, tell me more about what I did and didn't read.

It doesn't matter if Georgia certifies or not if Harris clearly wins enough states to get 270.

both georgia and arizona have recently passed laws that allow their elected officials to effectively ignore the vote and most of the rest of the battleground states will have something similar too before the election; so where are those 270 votes going to come from?
