Pennsylvania officials can certify election results that currently show Democrat Joe Biden winning the state by more than 80,000 votes, a federal judge ruled Saturday, dealing U.S. President Donald Trump's campaign another blow in its effort to invalidate the election.

‘Twas I who has his classmate at the Dickinson School of Law in Carlisle, PA. He wasn’t my friend, but not my rival either. He was a Reagan-Bush Republican. I suspect that he wound up at Dickinson as a back up when he didn’t get in a more prestigious law school. He was a bit of an upper class snob from NY. Sen. Toomey picked him for this seat, so Obama nominated him as part of some deal. Considering that Toomey oppossed Trump’s refusal to concede, it’s not that surprising that this judge didn’t find Trump’s arguments persuasive. Many Republican judges don’t like civil rights cases, and he is no different in that regard.

In fairness, what is happening is unprecedent in the scope of the fraud and the remedy is drastic. This will go up to SCOTUS, and at least Judge Brann didn’t do anything to obstruct appelate review. (I still need to read his opinion.) This isn’t over yet.

"there's no mechanism for changing the results"

We'll see what happens with those states and Powell's claimed evidence.

There's a mechanism for just about everything.

Does this really come as a surprise?

Democrats and Vichy Republicans packing the federal courts with anti Constitutionalist judges for decades had a goal, this is it.

You don’t live in a republic, you live in a judicial oligarchy.


Exactly. Those folks thinking some judge is just going to breezily invalidate the election to the benefit of Trump are dreaming.

I saw that after I posted. My bad.

You're right. He doesn't have a lot good to say of Giuliani's arguments.

This was expected all along as the way to get the case to the USSC. Oddly, if he had taken this and stalled it, he might have thwarted Team Trump’s plans.

I agree. This is good. One way or another this will not stop until it gets to the SC. One step closer.

Another point to keep in mind. Honest judges fear for the lives of themselves and their families. It has been made clear multiple times what they can expect.

One step closer to an appeal to the Amy Coney Barrett Supreme Court.

It doesn’t matter who appointed this judge.

The decision was made in June 2020, and they’re not going to change it now.

Just wondering. These judges that look at the evidence and shoot him down. After the truth comes out what happens to these judges. Do they just keep there snake a$$ jobs or are they investigated.
