does timetable matter?

I'm not sure that a time table matters -- for if fraud is found, would not the election be in question -- could they inaguarate then?  (anybody know?) Of course, the republicans will do everything in their power to stop such an investigation (as the white house tried to stop the 911 investigation....) -- but since the GAO is Non-Partisan, we have a better chance of at least getting a fair look at the weird things that went on.

I think we could learn a thing or two from some other recent elections that seem to be tainted.  If 200,000 in the ukrane can get together in protest, I don't see why people couldn't get together -- in a peaceful protest....first in their own states on "certification" day (Ohio hasn't certified its votes yet, though I do know some already have.) -- and maybe on a fixed day in December -- as well as Inaguaration day....  The electoral votes are not opened until that day, by the way.
