I had read that it had stalled for a Supreme Court ruling. Pleased to see the decision was correct.

"I had read that it had stalled for a Supreme Court ruling. Pleased to see the decision was correct."

I read the same thing. I have three questions:
1. Didn't the USSC already rule against Bush regarding this being a States matter?
2. Why did the USSC even consider a stay after said ruling when they could have refused to accept the case and accept the ruling of the Texas Supreme Court?
3. Why was the decision SO close?

While I'm glad justice was finally done, the fact that the USSC got involved at the last minute and had such a close decision is very troubling, to say the least.
