In the end, we, the American people - not any of our institutions - have to save our democracy by voting in defense of that democracy this fall.

I suspect Trump and his minions are no longer focusing on winning the election the regular way and, instead, intend to insure Trump's election by getting the election thrown into the House of Representatives...where a win by Trump would almost be a given. (The new House, no matter who controls it, will almost certainly have more red states than blue states...and each state gets only one vote.)
Getting the election thrown into the House, if Trump loses, is a lot easier than most people think. All they would have to do is to get a few closely contested states to improvise objections to their counts...and perhaps send competing elector certificates to Washington. Or, during the count, an objection may be sustained.
In any case, we are royally screwed. The Electoral College system, which was necessitated by slavers...is not democratic.
