So, I’d be watching THAT Board’s counting process VERY closely. They’re signaling.

Don’t you worry, folks. Looks like you got Roberts and Kavanaugh on your side.

She didn’t participate in a similar North Carolina case that was kicked to the SC.

“She might rule against us” is NOT a reason for recusal.

“The filing focuses on ‘the circumstances of [Barrett’s] nomination and confirmation’ to argue that her “impartiality might reasonably be questioned,”

Why would her impartiality be questioned? Because PDJT appointed her? So that means Gorsuch and Kavanaugh have to recuse, too?

Desperation.

Probably not even needed.

Don’t look now, but that was Frat Boy Kavanaugh going over to the dark side with Pretty Boy Roberts yesterday in allowing NC election officials to accept mail-in ballots NINE days after the election!

If he’s the originalist he claims to be he did the right thing.

The Constitution grants control of elections to state legislatures, not state bureaucrats.

When the state legislature says they had no say in the decision is that because 1)the election commission took it upon themselves to bestow this power to themselves? or 2) did the state legislature defer this power to the election commission at some earlier point in history?
