On Monday, the campaign to reelect President Donald Trump filed a mammoth lawsuit accusing Pennsylvania Secretary Kathy Boockvar and county elections boards throughout the state of violating the U.S. Constitution by unilaterally revising the law in a manner that deprives some voters of their rights to a free and fair election.
“In a rush to count mail ballots and ensure Democrat Joe Biden is elected, Pennsylvania has created an illegal two-tiered voting system for the 2020 General Election, devaluing in-person votes,” the lawsuit alleges.
“For voters that appeared at the polls, those citizens were required to sign voter registrations, have those signatures checked against voter rolls, vote in a polling place monitored by statutorily-authorized poll observers, and have their votes counted in a transparent and verifiable open and observed manner. By contrast, due to the arbitrary, unauthorized, and standardless actions of the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Kathy Boockvar, nearly 2.65 million votes were cast through a ‘mail-in’ process that lacked all of the hallmarks of transparency and verifiability that were present for in-person voters,” the suit claims.

Purple-finger in-person voting with valid ID is the only way we can have honest elections.
The DOJ Civil Rights Division needs to get on top of that for the future federal elections. Otherwise, all Americans are disenfranchised.
If Pennsylvania is irredeemably corrupted, can other states sue to remove them from the Electoral College total this year? How is it that Pennsylvania is not disenfranchising other states who followed the laws of their states?
I dun gradjated the sixth grade!

Penn’s government needs to straight up burn.
That strikes me as Solomonesque - and has the advantage of potentially throwing the election into the House of Representatives. In which, as it happens, the Republicans enjoy a majority when the vote is one vote per state as the Constitution provides.
Worst case, if the Republicans in the House wimped out on reelection Donald Trump, they could elect Pence instead (the HoR is allowed to choose from the top 3 candidates). The Senate would then choose the VP - and, given a Republican majority there, could make Trump VP.
Actually, the Republican Representative could offer Pence/Trump in exchange for at least token Democrat Support. They could deliberately split their vote between Pence and Trump on the first ballot, such that the Democrat support could put Pence over the top.
Having demonized Trump so heavily, they would have the choice of taking responsibility for Trump's election on the second ballot - or for voting for Pence on the first ballot.
In theory yes, but we're talking Pennsylvania Republicans in this case (think Arlen Spectre). This election could very well hinge on Scottish law. < /sarc>

that there is FU FUnny.
Between the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles and Pennsylvania GOP, the GOP traditionally has the best punters in the state.
There was a provision in the PA law that liberlized mail-in voting due to COVID. It said that if any part of it or the application of it was found invalid, that the whole law would be invalidated. Since the court changed the date for acceptance of main-in votes, I can see where all mail-in votes could be thrown out.
Philadelphia’s Republican commissioner calls Trump ‘deranged’ for accusations of voter fraud and reveals that the president’s supporters have threatened to kill his officials.

A guy named Al Schmidt, a Philadelphia Commissioner and so-called Republican (RINO), is being used big time by the Fake News Media to explain how honest things were with respect to the Election in Philadelphia. He refuses to look at a mountain of corruption & dishonesty. We win!
They should repeat the vote. Under some supervision.
Has been done before.
I think the strategy is that since PA sent B-man over the top in the EC count, and since the equal protection argument was successful in Bush v Gore that’s the most promising avenue to have late mail-in ballots removed from the count.
The people sending in their ballots by mail were not validated to the same degree as those who voted in person.
Also, I heard Mark Levin say that when mail-in ballots were received that were not filled-out correctly, they helped people who voted Dem to correct their ballots but did not do the same for Repubs.
“since the equal protection argument was successful in Bush v Gore that’s the most promising avenue”
That’s the opinion in Bush v. Gore that got the most Justices signed. It was a little bit better for the factual situation in FL in 2000. They had different counting methods for different counties. That’s a pretty easy equal protection argument. Ginsburg wrote a dissent of some claptrap that basically said that equal protection is only for black people. God, she was awful.
Rehnquist, Scalia, and Thomas concurred in an opinion that stated that the Florida Supreme Court exceeded its authority because Article II gives the process exclusively to state legislatures. 4 Justices disagreed with this, while two simply didn’t address it. Only Breyer remains of those who argued against it.
I guess we will eventually see what Bush v. Gore opinion Roberts, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett like best. I doubt that Thomas and Breyer have changed their minds on the matter. The Supreme Court is very different now. Only Thomas and Breyer are holdovers.
And don’t forget THIS proof of Democrat Vote FRAUD: https://www.foundingfathers.org/Papers/Politics/BenfordsLaw_n_ElectionFraud.aspx?fbclid=IwAR1j4khaIqO8WVozojndaRpN_xPKoYlJCU8ugw4ekxgIQshL8vQtuWu-9gY
I am not sure who these ballots were mailed to in PA, but they were not requested, please correct me if I am wrong.
Yep. Fraud is fraud.
No provision for that. Instead of 538, its 518.
I don’t think that would be enough to change the outcome. They have to claim and adjudicate that the rules were different in different counties (like no dates, no signatures, etc.) and that the administration was fraudulent. Both the PASC and the administration changed the rules without authority.
Then the legislature has to appoint Trump electors and overrule the administration. Tall order but can and must be done.
