I agree it’s bad.

It’s also bad to go running to a Federal court to interfere in the internal, sovereign affairs of a State - one of which is the appointment of Electors.

If a State Court defies the rules a Legislature has set for the appointment of Electors, they should be defied. In the extreme, the Legislature should appoint their Electors directly.

What should NOT happen is to open up the process of appointing Electors to ANY BRANCH of the Government at Washington. That government was DELIBERATELY excluded from having a role in the appointment of Electors and of their election of the President and Vice President.

Now, why do you suppose they did it that way?

“What should NOT happen is to open up the process of appointing Electors to ANY BRANCH of the Government at Washington.”

By far the best post I have read on this topic, thank you. It drives me up the wall how many so-called conservatives have let themselves be conned into accepting Judicial Supremecy, particularly the horrifying notion that the Supreme Court’s rulings could ever take precedence over laws passed by state legislators on that state’s election matters.
