91. "seek to" does not equal "did".
There is nothing "exactly backwards" about "saying that because there is a court case the election was never nullified."

You apparently don't understand the law or legal procedure.

If the election was "nullified" it would have essentially been cancelled, dead as a door nail, forever, forever, forever dead, dead, dead.

The fact that it is alive and still well in the legal system flatly contradicts that notion.

Legal arguments made at the beginning of the court case are merely arguments - you can't pick one out (the way you have with the swearing in issue) and say "Bingo! Game over!" the way you have. It's not just illogical, it simply isn't the way election law/courts work.
