Uh, huh. Sounds like the election wasn't cancelled.

No, not cancelled outright, but more than a hint that it was cancelled in selected districts.

Former Ohio Elections Chief Blackwell Brings a Troubled Record
on Elections to Fraud Commission

When in office, Blackwell earned a reputation for sowing partisan conflict — a challenging dynamic
in a position that involved running elections. In 2004, he served as co-chair for President Bush’s re-
election campaign in Ohio, a “swing state” where the election he oversaw was vigorously contested
— and also campaigned for a “defense of marriage” amendment on the ballot that year. In that
same election, Blackwell issued a series of decisions that both restricted access to voting (discussed
below) and invited criticism for the appearance and substance of partisanship.
Greg Hartmann, the Republican who ran to succeed Blackwell in 2006, called Blackwell’s choice to
co-chair the Ohio Bush campaign a mistake.3 Newspaper editorial boards observed “a disturbingly
erratic combination of inattention to his job and blatant partisanship in the conduct of elections,”4
as well as an “overtly partisan record.”5 The Columbus Dispatch framed the issue as a question:
“Can an elections chief be so partisan that his ability to manage a clean vote comes into question? In Blackwell’s case, yes.”

Adelita Grijalva can force a vote on the Epstein files, but she's still not sworn in

More than three weeks after winning her congressional race, Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva never imagined her fight to get sworn into office would take this long.

The Arizona Democrat has keys to her office, but not much else.

If the people vote, but TPTB refuse to let the winner take office, has the election been cancelled?
