Hawaii's top court rejects complaint challenging Nov. 3 vote

Source: Associated Press

HONOLULU (AP) — The Hawaii Supreme Court on Tuesday dismissed an elections complaint challenging the entirety of the Nov. 3 general election in the islands, clearing the way for the results of the state’s presidential vote to be certified.

The state’s highest court, in a unanimous ruling, said the plaintiffs lacked standing to challenge the results of all federal, state and county races. Further, even if the plaintiffs had standing, they failed to prove any facts in support of their claims, the order said.

Hawaii was one of just two states that hadn’t certified the results of the presidential race. West Virginia was the other.

Hawaii’s chief elections officer hasn’t indicated when he would certify the results. President-elect Joe Biden won 63.2% of Hawaii’s vote, compared to President Donald Trump’s 33.9%

28 votes for Biden for every 15 for PINO. 28 out of every 43.
That is, indeed, an ass whooping.

Even multiple times like Georgia, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania?

Of course its all to create the "where's there's smoke there's gotta be a fire" to the MAGAt crowd. And they are stupid enough for it to work on them.
