“and PA awaits judicial review”

PA decision by judge to be made on Monday, one day before the Federal certification deadline. I kinda doubt this judge is going to order the State of Pennsylvania to commence a recount that’s in contradiction of State law one day before the election cert date on the basis that election fraud allegations of maybe, possibly, could be, even though there is no evidence whatsoever are as likely as “androids from outer space living among us” according to Pennsylvania Secretary of State’s office.

In addition to the fact that the Secretary of State for the Commonwealth and the state's lawyers, and the state's expert witness are ALL Democrats who argued before the court that Stein/Clinton/Soros case is without merit, by withdrawing her contest petition before Commonwealth Court, she now faces an even higher legal hurdle in Federal Court.

Originally, she had "merely" to establish a prima facie case that there was fraud, tampering or incompetence so widespread as to call the result of the election into doubt.

That argument could be made on the basis of a public good, in which she was just one interested party. Now, in order to get an injunction in Federal Court she must show that she personally faces irreparable harm if the election contest does not go forward.

Stein/Clinton/Soros painted themselves into this corner when they withdrew their petition at the state level.

If that weren't bad enough, in his questioning earlier today the US District Judge raised the issue that there was a serious danger of disenfranchising all of PA voters if he grants the injunction, and scolded Stein's lawyers implicitly by asking them why they waited until last Monday to bring the case to Federal Court.

Ouch.

Looks over to me, even without a ruling.
