The judge who ordered Pennsylvania to not certify the results of the 2020 election wrote in an opinion on Friday that the Republicans who filed the related lawsuit will likely win the case.
Pennsylvania Commonwealth Judge Patricia McCullough made the assessment as part of an opinion explaining her rationale for blocking Pennsylvania’s election certification.
A group of Republican lawmakers and candidates sued the Keystone State earlier this week, arguing that the state legislature’s mail-in voting law—Act 77—violated the commonwealth’s constitution.
“Petitioners appear to have established a likelihood to succeed on the merits because petitioners have asserted the Constitution does not provide a mechanism for the legislature to allow for expansion of absentee voting without a constitutional amendment,” McCullough wrote.
When ruling on an emergency injunction, judges have to consider whether the party which requested the injunction is likely to win the case or “succeed on the merits.” McCullough opined that the “petitioners appear to have a viable claim that the mail-in ballot procedures set forth in Act 77 contravene” the plain language of the provision of the Pennsylvania Constitution which deals with absentee voting.
Pennsylvania said that it had certified the results of the election for president and vice president on Nov. 24 while the court was reviewing briefings from both parties. In response, the plaintiffs filed a request for an emergency injunction, arguing that that state need not have acted so fast.
“It appears that respondents’ actions may have been accelerated in response to the application for emergency relief … in an effort to preclude any remedial action by this court faster than this court was able to evaluate the application for emergency relief and the answers to it,” the plaintiffs wrote.
The emergency request underlined that while Pennsylvania completed vote-counting and submitted the signed certification to the U.S. archivist, a number of steps still remain for the formal certification process to be completed.
“While Respondents may have proactively attempted to avoid potential injunctive relief granted by this Court, Respondents duties with regard to finalization of the full election results are far from complete,” the filing states.
Republican state lawmakers in Pennsylvania released a memo on Nov. 27, advising that they will soon introduce a resolution to dispute the results of the 2020 election.
The resolution states that the executive and judicial branches of the Keystone State’s government usurped the legislature’s constitutional power to set the rules of the election.
The resolution “declares that the selection of presidential electors and other statewide electoral contest results in this commonwealth is in dispute” and “urges the secretary of the commonwealth and the governor to withdraw or vacate the certification of presidential electors and to delay certification of results in other statewide electoral contests voted on at the 2020 general election.”
I understand what you are saying, but not Won!
The left may start a civil war. It all depends on how Biden presents does his concesssion. Will he admit that he only won by fraud and that Trump is the Actual Winner? Maybe it is coupled with a Pardon and seizure of all his payoff money it will have some force.
Or will he do an AlGore shout that he won and the election was STOLEN!, Or a H. Clnton wandering in the Woods drinking her potions and muttering imprecations and complaints that someone stole her broom on election night! Even if “JoBee” concedes he will fall into his habitual habit of lying and will start saying that he really did win and was only conceding for the good of the nation to keep the peace and other self aggranizing b/s like that.
So, their antifa and BLM blackshirts may start it anyway.
Win...If civil war, we will win. (We Win they lose.)
Thanks Travis, much obliged. Hate the waiting, but keep reminding myself that I have to try to be patient. Hard to do, being Type A like I am. :-)

Thanks for the links.
But also this article is referring to the other lawsuit brought by Sean Parnell et all.... not Trump team.
Two separate topics; one was fraud and the other was PA constitution. The latter was the one that didn’t get past the appellate court.
Likelihood means merely possibility. Likely means more than 50%.
Wild times ahead. Please don’t miss these 2 interviews:
Trevor Loudon: China Tied to Election Push; the Global Socialist Agenda
> Nov 28
As the United States and the world waits for the final results of the 2020elections, evidence is demonstrating numerous cases of fraud and irregularities that are calling into question the integrity of the U.S. Electoral System. Yet beyond this, many of the radical groups that have been involved with activities around the election have deep ties to the Chinese government. To learn more about this, and the broader agenda behind these groups, we spoke with author, filmmaker, and Epoch Times contributor Trevor Loudon.

Oh OK, thanks — I understand now.
Can’t help thinking that the purple-ink-on-the-fingertip idea for vote tracking that was done for Iraq is looking better all the time.
Many thanks!!
Could you post the MI graph separately?
This one?
to not certify
should be...NOT TO CERTIFY!
Shame on you, Ivan.
Drives me crazy when supposed professionals do that.
WON a civil war or WANT a civil war? They ain’t WON no civil war yet! I haven’t even fired a shot yet!
“”””If you hate to say it, then why say it? We are in the middle of a war. It is a critical time. Defeatism is not helpful. We are going to win this.”””
Yours is an excellent response.
When Trump is declared winner of the 2020 Election Chaos, the Leftists will learn very quickly about the Insurrection Act should the Leftists start rioting.
“If you hate to say it, then why say it? “

This was my first thought when I read that post...’why the hell say it and admit defeat’...?
I guess there are people who are paid to agitate...or just enjoy it...?
“””I know the appellate dismissal puts the PA matter on a fast track to the Supremes, but the above-referenced judge stopping certification makes it sound like the PA case is still alive.”””
The Trump Team argued in their Nov 9 complaint that the PA Secretary of State violated Act 77 in the guidelines given regarding absentee ballots. The 3rd circuit said: “So what. The SOS and election officials have lots of latitude.”
Now the Injunction Judge is saying that Act 77 violates the PA Constitution.
Thus, the 2020 election in PA becomes invalid and remedies need to be done.
“Likihood does not mean likely.”
You’re right. Liklihood doesn’t make an appearance in any English dictionary. In all likelihood, liklihood is likely a French wolf complimenting Little Red Riding Hood’s attire.
T.M. Thanks!

And yes the article. Her honor Mdm. Judge knows that Justice Alito already provided the specific points on why this suit will prevail. (Why set yourself up to be overturned by the S.C.?)
Chart is wrong... there are over 9m registered voters in PA alone...
This might help keep it straight. Cases filed, info about them, where they are in the system, kept updated.

All of the lawsuits are likely being coordinated by the Trump Team. Each lawsuit is challenging a certain aspect of how the election was conducted.
