How many presidential elections have been overturned?

I'm guessing none.

Since we are having Nothing Burgers I'll have mustard, mayo, wasabioli sauce, tomato, pickles, more pickles, cucumber, hot peppers and garlic sauce.

Thanks 👍

Someone within living memory did try to overturn a legitimate election, and it led to some unnecessary deaths. Time for a reckoning, lest he try it again.

I thought we were told there was nothing could be done about the 2020 election., pence had to play along with the shenanigans. Why are new laws needed?

Because Trump might try again. He’s still trying to overturn the 2020 election:
