States that made big noise about election results two years ago changed their tune in november: this time certification went quick and easy. Adrian Fontes‚ Arizonaʼs Secretary of State thinks election-doubting is done for good (but some people dont agree with that)
The whole certification thing went smooth-as-silk in previously troublesome states — a big change from the post-election mess we saw back in 2022. The main reason: Donald Trump won the presidential race which made his super-loyal followers stay quiet; even though he kept saying during his campaign that only cheating could make him lose
Its worth noting that some experts are not so quick to call this a permanent fix: they think the peaceful process happened just because their preferred candidate won. The certification meetings in key states finished without any protests or legal challenges; something that seemed impossible just a couple years back
