Republicans control the legislatures in states totaling 302 electoral votes
Expect the stories about "busloads of fake voters from the Mexican border" to start out during the primaries this spring, and then get louder and louder over the summer. This is their fallback.

2. GOP is counting on Putin-assisted coup to be completed.

The Gangsters of Putin (aka, Republicans) are desperate to keep Democrats from voting. If they lose power, they could face consequences for their illegal, even treasonous, acts and will certainly have their gerrymandering and voter suppression reversed.

We have to overwhelm the cheat machine.

3. Democrats are governors of states totaling only 247 electoral votes

State legislatures are not necessarily a good measure because of state level gerrymandering. Statewide elections might give a better impression.

However, that being said, the states with Democratic governors include states that Trump won easily in 2016: Kentucky, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana. And states with Republican governors include states that Trump lost by a wide margin in 2016: Vermont, Maryland, and Massachusetts

5. No, that's not the point. The Constitution says the state legislature can direct

the appointment of electors in any way they see fit.
