“Every petition that is docketed at the U.S. Supreme Court, and remains on the docket, will eventually be distributed for a conference, usually held on a Friday. The date of the conference depends upon whether or not the Court is in session, in recess or on vacation. (There were 39 conferences during the 2011 Term.) Does this mean the Court will discuss each petition distributed during their conference?...
For those justices participating in the pool, the petitions are read by one of the four law clerks typically found in each of the justices’ chambers. Each of them writes a memo as to each petition he or she read that summarizes the petition with a recommendation as to whether or not the petition is cert-worthy. These pool memos are then distributed to the participating justices. Prior to the conference, the Chief Justice circulates a “discuss list” containing any petitions he deems worthy of further discussion. Each justice can add to the list any petition he or she deems worthy. Very few, if any, petitions on the discuss list are granted.”

I note that the source was published October 25, 2012, which makes it quite stale. That source does note that the law clerks at SCOTUS can be quite influential in getting certiorari granted. From what is available online about this case, someone at SCOTUS is pushing to have the case heard. We don't know exactly who at present. It does present a novel issue of holding the Congress accountable for failing to investigate election fraud. No one raised that issue previously anywhere.

“From what is available online about this case, someone at SCOTUS is pushing to have the case heard.”

We have no such knowledge. The people pushing this and the Gateway Pundit - in my experience one of the least reliable web sites around - is pushing it as a big deal.

The case was received. The Solicitor General didn’t bother to respond. Therefor it goes directly to conference, which does not require any Justice to say anything about it. Their law clerks will review all the cases going to conference and sometime between now and 6 Jan 2023, either a justice will indicate interest - or not. If not, it will likely be turned down without a single word of discussion.

AND I’d bet a LOT that it will be turned down, and most probably without a word being said.
