We do, but the Texas state case is better for the Supremes to take up—except I don’t like the remedy sought, which is to turn it over to those state legislatures—full of corrupt GOPe critters as those legislatures are.
If the Supreme Court had overturned these illegalities in the Pennsylvania election, then all the lawsuits from Texas and other states would have no merit.
Texas filing covers 4 states. If the Texas case is heard then the earlier Kelly Pennsylvania filing case “comes along for the ride. IMO
OK, I can understand that. Thanks. But, (1) the merits of the complaints in PA were great, and I hate to see them tossed aside as if the law does not matter, and (2) SCOTUS has not yet agreed to hear the Texas case.
The Texas lawsuit is not limited to Pennsylvania alone: it also targets Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin.
Better the legislatures than nothing.
That is the wrong basis for making such decisions and proves the Supreme Court is criminally political.
Is ANYONE going to fight? I include the people in this statement.

Oh wow! Thank you! That made me smile!
I’ll take your word for that. Seems like separate issues, but the courts do all kinds of things that I have a hard time following the legal maneuvering on.
Not sure that’s a great standard to go by, but they’re getting more done on it than I am, for sure!
he problem is that Constitutionally the Federal government has nothing to say about the way a state conducts its elections. That is strictly a state function. The Feds probably would have to go at it under civil rights.
A bit redundant.
If the left gets control of the Senate and the Presidency then the courts will not matter any more, see- “Mr. Marshall has made his decision. Now let him enforce it.”
I don’t like the remedy sought, which is to turn it over to those state legislatures—full of corrupt GOPe critters as those legislatures are.
I think that remedy has no effect, because state legislatures already have that power, and even if the Court tells them to select electors, the legislature might do nothing and no one can force them.
The remedy you’re mentioning has an implied remedy: ruling that the election that took place is invalid.
As I understand it, what I described is expressly requested in this case.
