New York Electors Will Meet In Person

USA Today notes New York’s electors will meet in person at the State Capitol — despite a raging pandemic — because of a strict interpretation of a section of state Election Law that says in part: “The electors shall convene at the state capitol.”

Gov. Andrew Cuomo says that if the state were to allow remote votes from outside the Capitol building, it could open the state to a legal challenge from Trump and his supporters who have already proven to be litigious.
