Article I, Section 4, of the United States Constitution, the authority to regulate the time, place, and manner of federal elections is up to each State, unless Congress legislates otherwise.

I think these SC rulings are right in this sense and why they’ve been rejected by the Court. Do we want the Feds having more control?
*****************************************************************************
I just finished reading a brief article on the case for 9 days extension —As I understand it, the state legislature had already made an extension of 3 days for the absentee ballots.

The state board of elections (unelected people)made a deal with a union to change that to 9 days—after some sort of voting had already started.

So unelected people made a change which favored one political party and substituted their judgement for the legislature.

That is clearly not going with the state’s legislature. That’s unelected bureaucrats doing what they want. So no I don’t see how this is actually correct.

The judicial branch just handed the will of the people via their state legislature’s over to unelected people.

The defectors were Roberts and Kavanaugh. ACB had not had time to get up to speed and did not participate.

Thanks, I was wondering who defected. Kavanaugh???? I am disgusted. Too bad Amy wasn’t up to speed.

It's a state issue. Feds don't need to be involved. </libertarian>
