The law is so clear that PA statutory law was ignored and the election was in part illegal, and the Equal Protection Clause was violated, that oral argument may not be required. As with Bush v. Gore, the harder question is what is the proper remedy? All eyes are on SCOTUS.

Cheaters never prosper.   The election is void.

” As with Bush v. Gore, the harder question is what is the proper remedy? All eyes are on SCOTUS.”

My guess is that SCOTUS won’t take the cases as enough states have certified by now to give Biden the more then 270 electors he needs. Even if SCOTUS rejected the electors of a state or to, Biden would still have enough of a cushion to be over 270. And remember, that 270 number remains firm even if some states electors are tossed.

The difference with Bush v Gore is that the leader was the person being harmed by Gore's selective recounting of partisan counties. Stopping the recount and letting the certification stand was the remedy for Bush. Gore had already gone through one "remedy" of the contested election trial in Florida (David Boies was his counsel), which he lost.

President Trump has been denied a contested election trial in every state he's filed in, and he's the one who was harmed by unconstitutional election process changes engineered by the Democrats in all the swing states. In this case, the remedy would be to overturn the certification and hand the decision to the state legislatures via US Code Title 3 Chapter 1, and Article II Section 1 of the Constitution.

The trouble for President Trump is that he needs more than Pennsylvania overturned; he needs Georgia and Michigan, perhaps Wisconsin, too, since the problems in Pennsylvania were also coordinated with the other swing states by the Democrats. However, those cases haven't reach SCOTUS yet, so it's not clear that there is a critical mass of certifications to be overturned such that President Trump rightfully wins.
