As far as i know it was Alito. PA never responded to the first request and the second request for those ballots was due yesterday at 2PM and there’s been no word.

Again, I am emphasizing the BIGGER issue of whether the state legislature has the right to choose the electors IF state law has been violated which it obviously has by the Pennsylvania courts, governor, sec of state, and state agencies acting in VIOLATION of ESTABLISHED STATE ELECTION LAWS.

The answer would be yes, I would argue, because the US constitution places the responsibility for the manner of choosing electors in the state legislatures. The legislatures delegate that through state law to the voters, voting under the laws established by the state [and in accord with federal election law which I believe derives from the equal protection clause - all voters have to be treated equally].

If the law is not followed, then the legislature as the supervening authority has the right to choose the electors themselves.
