So why didn't the Federal government just arrest and try those responsible for the vote rigging in 1876 with sedition?

Have you realized yet that with your zeal to punish because you don't like their opinion you are proving my point?

it was literally written into the Constitution post-Civil War (14th Am.) sedition and treason are disqualifying acts for Congresspersons pickle rick! Jan 10, 13:37

Its also written into the Constitution that Congresspersons can challenge the electoral results for any state. DTravel Jan 10, 15:41

bull****. casting that vote was an attempt to throw out certified election results and overturn the outcome. nobody limited their speech {nm} pickle rick! Jan 10, 16:46

Throwing out a state's electoral college votes would be the point of such a CONSTITUTIONAL challenge, yes. {nm} DTravel Jan 10, 17:50

it's not "constitutional" just because you allege it without any factual or legal basis to actually overturn lawful certified results {nm} pickle rick! Jan 10, 18:39

Then why does Congress have a specific procedure for just such a thing? {nm} DTravel Jan 10, 19:19
