STATE OF WISCONSIN CASE YET TO BE DECIDED...

WISCONSIN.🚨⚖️

"DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE."

Trump's team initially asked the court to 'remand' the case to Republican-controlled legislature "to pick new electors who would then cast their votes for Trump."

The judge decided the arguments "fail as a matter of law and fact."🔻 pic.twitter.com/7xyVYXxN7c— Kyle Becker (@kylenabecker) December 12, 2020

I really appreciate these pings. Thanks. I was looking for this to fail so they can move upward.

“Trump’s team initially asked the court to ‘remand’ the case to Republican-controlled legislature “to pick new electors who would then cast their votes for Trump.”

If Wisconsin and other states did like WA did a few years back, I don’t see how picking new electors would do any good. WA and other states have passed laws saying their electors HAVE to go to the person with the popular vote.

The SCOTUS has upheld that law.

I'm confused. Doesn't "ismissed with prejudice" mean the court is saying that it has made a final determination on the merits of the case, and the plaintiff is forbidden from filing another lawsuit based on the same grounds?

If so, how is this "yet to be decided"?
