Republican Attorneys General Taking Legal Action over Pennsylvania Mail-in Ballots
Breitbart ^ | 9 Nov 2020 | KATHERINE RODRIGUEZ

Posted on 11/09/2020 5:42:12 PM PST by conservative98

Schmitt, who was instrumental in bringing this brief forward, said the attorneys general filed this brief Monday “seeking the Supreme Court to take the Pennsylvania case and then reverse the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s decision.”

In the brief, Schmitt said they highlighted the issue of “separation of powers,” specifically to state legislatures “granting time, place, and manner” for their state’s frameworks.

Schmitt said the state Supreme Court “overstepped” its bounds when dealing with the state legislature.

Schmitt also said the brief dealt with “election integrity,” and called mail-in ballots the “most likely form of fraud.”

He then cited a recent case in Missouri where a local official was indicted for ballot fraud.

Hunter called the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s actions “one of the most breathtaking abuses of judicial authority.”

He then explained that the group as attorneys general had a responsibility to “address that kind of abuse of judicial authority” because it can affect election outcomes not just in Pennsylvania but nationwide.

“We are seeking the Supreme Court to take this case,” Schmitt said. “We think this is a very, very important case.”

Before the election, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court said it would allow mail-in ballots to be counted post-Election Day without evidence of a postmark. The state Supreme Court also ruled before the election that ballots cannot be tossed over a mismatched signature.

What an embarrassment to the country that we’re going to have to drag our president out of the White House because he’s a sore loser - and his entire party is cheering him on. Banana Republicans.

It’s up for the Supreme Court. Not investigation.

Doesn't he hold the Guiness Record for the shortest tenure of any WH Spokesperson?

Remind me someone, how many hours did he hold that job? Or was it measured in terms of minutes?

This is what I would like to see the good people of PA and other states do.

obama and ACORN used to show up late night at bank officer’s homes trying to force them to make bad loans. The banks ended up doing it before they failed. I would imagine that was quite intimidating having people show up late at their homes. Left leaning thugs have done this to republican leader’s homes too.

If that’s what the left needs to do to communicate, that’s what should be done to them. PA AG Josh Shapiro was in the face of anyone that fought to have a fair election. He needs people outside his home at all hours demanding answers. There was no problem when obama did it or when dems did it to republicans. So why not?

All those folks that attended Trump rallies might enjoy driving by Shapiro’s home at all hours of the night. Maybe he’ll come out and answer some questions. Same for the other dem leaders trying to steal the election.

I am a non-violent person and would never encourage violence. That is not our way.

Antifa is allowed to show up at people’s homes. BLM is allowed to do it. Why shouldn’t conservative groups? There were a lot of big loud flag waving pickup trucks at Trump rallies.

I think obama was right about something. This tactic seems to be pretty effective.

"Lincoln Project"?

I thought it was now the Lincoln-Fox Project.

OReilly's latest upcoming book in his Killing Lincoln series should be "Killing Fox".

Question to all:

If they do decide that "the state Supreme Court “overstepped” its bounds when dealing with the state legislature," would that not apply to certain other states, like North Carolina, where the same thing occurred?
