Could Hoffman and Engel actually win if Cochise county refuses to certify?

Yes.

I don't know why Hobbs is trying to force Cochise County to certify its results.

It's a win for Democrats if votes from Cochise County aren't counted.

She's probably trying to avoid anymore accusations of "rigging" the election in favor of her and the Democrats.

Democrats should call Hobbs and tell her to drop the lawsuit.

When Republicans are hanging themselves, don't intervene.

For the good of democracy, Cochise county should certify. But for the good of the nation, they should not.

No no no no no!!!! Would you like it if an R-controlled county that happened to vote D, refused to certify? No? I thought not.

This would set a precedent tor governments to do what Trump wanted the R legislatures of Georgia and Arizona to do in 2020! It’s putting your political preferences above the rule of law. Anyone who believes in the rule cannot with integrity want this county to not certify. To want it to happen for political benefit makes you no better than a Trumpist in this regard.

Exactly.

Utterly disheartening to see a bunch of red avatars suddenly not give a sh*t about democracy when it's about owning the Pubs. In addition to being immoral, it's grossly shortsighted.

I never said that Democrats should go do something that is "immoral", but if Republicans want to hang themselves, Democrats need not stop them.
