The list of states joining Texas continues to increase.
The state of Texas sued Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin on Monday night with the US Supreme Court challenging their unlawful election procedures.
Texas argued these four states violated the US Constitution because they made changes to voting rules and procedures through the courts or through executive actions. But these states did not make the changes through the state legislatures as spelled out in the US Constitution.
We reported earlier today that President Trump joined Texas in suing the four states being sued by Texas.
Last night we reported 18 states have to date joined Texas in their case against the four states
Next we reported that 106 US House Republicans have signed a brief backing Texas in this case (the list should be over 200).
Now this afternoon, the Pennsylvania House joined the case.

“Gateway Pundit is often referred to here on freerepublic.com but their reporting is inaccurate.”
They’ve always been bullshit.
These are very interesting times.
Remember the good old days when we would ‘pei ping’ each other to articles with ChiCom relevance?
Now it’s pointless since every article has ChiCom relevance.
And it turns out that half of all articles have been written by ChiComs.
Indeed, and I still send the occasional Pei Ping.
Actually 20 have joined including Atlanta and PA. Why do you negative people think the most important job you have is throwing cold water on any good news?
Oh, Jeb, just shut up!!
See SCOTUS Update. Many have filed in support of plaintiff, and others have filed in support of defendants. Only 6 have filed to Intervene, not 18.
Praise YHVH (God)!!! He is good regardless of how evil US government and institutions have become.
A motion to intervene by President Donald Trump
An amici curiae (“friends of the court”) brief by Missouri, on behalf of itself and “Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, and West Virginia” in support of Texas's case

Responses to the Texas filing by each of the defendant states

The sheer scale of filings in just three days — including from Democrats and groups on the left — for a case that the Supreme Court has not yet said it will hear may increase the chance that it will do so.
Add Idaho and GA legislature
Technically, the case has not been accepted - only filed. So with a single sentence SCOTUS could simply say ... denied. IF (and yes, it is a big if), SCOTUS accepts, then and only then will an intervening party (including President Trump) find out if their motion will be accepted. For example, SCOTUS could accept accept Texas and deny L. Lin Wood (who also filed tonight to intervene).
My point still stands. Gateway Pundit is claiming 18 states have joined, but they should clarify that to mean 18 states have joined along with others "in support of" Texas, and not joined as a party to the complaint.
The main significance of this is that THE PENNSYLVANIA EXECUTIVE USURPED THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS OF THE PENNSYLVANIA LEGISLATURE.
