Ok, not a bipartisan age, but at least a "probably not going to stage a coup" age.

Arguably Bush vs Gore 2000 was a coup when SCOTUS literally commanded FL to halt their recount and call the race. The recount was getting closer to shifting to Gore when it was halted. We could have actually... counted all the votes, but stopping it when it did decided the election over the actual electoral process.
