That lawsuit “should” work in Georgia, if the Judge is on the up and up. But it won’t if the judge is in the tank ? Same logic as the suits in Pennsylvania addressing the original Constitutional grants of powers being the issue... as state officials (and judges) don’t have the power to rewrite the laws directing how elections work... says the U.S. Constitution.

Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court got it wrong. A lower court then stepped up to correct them... with Alito’s backing ? No one much commenting on the lower court judge seriously dissing the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s clear error ?

If the suit doesn’t work at the local level... all that does is generate another harm to be adjudicated... giving you another reason, if not the reason, that you want and need to have in hand to take Georgia to the SCOTUS for a butt whipping.

Signing up volunteers for that role ?

Much of what you see now... is probably the Kabuki Dance of aligning the issues to have them be resoundingly resolved at that level...

Can’t take too much other value from that as content having linear value... rather than non-linear value in defining the structure of the disputes that will be heard by SCOTUS.

The left are loudly dismissing Trumps wins as “minor”... in Pennsylvania, they say it doesn’t matter because its only impact is on a couple of votes. That’s clearly deliberately ignoring the reality... as the issue in principle applies FAR more broadly than in only adhering to a few specific votes...

Here’s the “small” NY Times, shrinking even more:

Here’s the Wall Street Journal, pointing out the issue is “Who Writes Election Law” not who got a vote here or there:

But, if Alito stepped in to put THAT finger on the scales in Pennsylvania... and Georgia just ignores that ? Hmmm.

Yep, where PA goes legislatively, GA will follow, I believe.
