PA and GA have disregarded their own laws, and probably other states. Perhaps that will be the deciding factor. Alito has already indicated that.

I agree that the one case of fraud in PA has merit on Constitutional grounds. But you know the 'Rats will trot out their "it's not widespread" and "it doesn't change the result" arguments. The courts seem to focus very narrowly on cases like this. They might throw out a few dozen fraudulent votes here and there, maybe a couple thousand (like in PA) where there is a point of law to argue. But they will likely reject any kind of attempt to extrapolate the one case to encompass any more than the limits of that one case. So building a "tip of the iceberg" argument, while persuasive to reasonable people in the court of public opinion, won't win in a court of law.

That's why putting one's faith in the courts to right the wrongs of election fraud will probably end up as disappointment. Trouble is, where else to turn? The judges say, "let the voters fix it", presumably by electing honest election officials. But think about that for a minute., They're saying, the system is broken, use the system to fix it. IOW, use a broken tool to fix a broken tool. Good luck with that. We know the electoral system is corrupt, so forget about electing honest officials. The law enforcement apparatus has been weaponized against political opposition. So where do we go? Its the kind of thing that drove our forefathers to start shooting at people at a bridge in Concord some years ago.
