9. Stopping the Florida vote count is the point

It was unconstitutional and it disenfranchised the entire country. Had all of the uncounted Florida votes been counted, Al Gore got the most votes. This makes Tennessee irrelevant. The 5 unelected GOP SCOTUS judges who violated the constitution in order to thwart the will of the people and install their candidate is why our country suffers so terribly today. The founders of our country never intended for 5 unelected SCOTUS judges to decide who occupies the White House.
