“Wrotnowski’s petition was initially denied by Ginsburg and then refiled with Scalia,...”

Shouldn’t that tell this bonehead something. Ginsburg is a marxist hag who doesn’t care whether or not 0 was born in the US. Scalia cares about the constitution. This stupid article, rant, whatever assumes Scalia and Thomas are a couple of Neo-cons trying to overturn an election.

An application to the Supreme Court for a stay must be made to a single Justice-- there is one assigned to each region of the country. If the assigned Justice denies the stay, you can re-file the same motion with any other Justice you want. When that happens, 99% of the time, the second Justice will forward the application to the full Court, so it can be denied definitively; otherwise, the same motion could be made to each of the 9 Justices, one after the other. So there is nothing of any significance in Scalia's or Thomas's referrals to the full court. They rejected Donofrio's motion 0-9, without comment, and they will do the same with Cort's.
