Can you find any references to support your position?

>Nope. The results are just a meaningful as all previous US elections for President, since the procedures set forth in the Constitution are being followed. Do you contend that the system is broken and the results meaningless even if the same candidate wins both the Electoral and Popular vote, or just in the case where it is split?

Note that I was not arguing anything about elections. My statement was "If a process is broken then its results are meaningless and should be discarded."

Let's think this through...

Imagine a process (a function) called goober(). Goober's intention is to return the absolute value of a number given to it.

We test goober:

goober(1) = 1
goober(2) = 2
goober(-3) = -3 <--- wrong

Next, say that we are given proof that goober() is not working properly.

Case 1: we are able to determine which results are correct and which aren't. In this case we only need to discard the incorrect results

Case 2: we are not able to determine which results are correct and which aren't
In this case we must discard all results.

So we both are wrong. (damn)
