Calling all Patriots and FReepers in Ohio... head to the State Capitol and FReep this idiot!!!!!!! BOO him out of office!!!
Yost is toast come next election.
Classic establishment Republican response.
Bend over and grab the ankles. Let the Democrat win.
Nothing is more “Republican” than that.
correct
Yost would have been better off to stay away from the case. Doing what he did, makes Ohio look suspect.
Many democrats stealthy run as “republicans” because they know full well they could NEVER win as a democrat in a Red state. They are political science grads who want power at all cost regardless of ethics. You see a lot of these RINO’s in Ohio, Tennessee, Georgia and Kansas.
Rarely do you conservatives do this in blue states.
How much money is he getting from the CCP
>Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s lawsuit argues such a move is needed because coronavirus-related changes to election rules in those states opened the door to unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud.
The Texas AG argues that claims of voter fraud are unsubstantiated?
Or maybe the bias should have at least been in a separate sentence?
Yeah, Ohio politicians definitely look suspect.
“Yost, a Columbus Republican, stated in the brief that the Supreme Court lacks authority to order state legislatures in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin to appoint presidential electors”
He’s actually right; the State legislatures have that power.
However,
Supreme Court HAS the authority to order state legislatures in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin to toss the votes that were made that were done in a way that was unconstitutional with both the State Constitutions and the US Constitution.
Can we find out if Yost and Fang had the same cell phone tower pings in the recent past?
For some reason here in Ohio, the cream fails to rise to the top. we get a bunch of dregs
Well my call to Yost was a waste.
Easy these gop pukes will become rats and get voted in every time by fraud
I am less optimistic after reading the PA response. How do Trump’s lawyers respond to IV B of the response? Even if the state issued an unconstitutional policy, the voters of who followed it should not be disenfranchised. They followed the law. Taking away their votes is a harsh remedy for a mistake by the State.
“ The Supreme Court can invalidate the elector certification for the states because of constitutional issues. The states legislations can not be ordered to choose a new slate of electors. That would be their choice.”
That is correct.
The first argument strikes me as ludicrous given the claims made by Texas; and the second as ludicrous given the time constraints.
You are closest to the correct answer. SCOTUS can invalidate the elections in any or all of those states due to constitutional violations, and can tell the state legislatures that they have the power to remedy this issue themselves. Then it’s up to the state legislatures.
Also, the article is inaccurate; Yost didn’t side with the defendants. He’s kind of taken a third position that the bureaucrats and the courts cannot change the rules or decide the electors, the legislature has to do that.
....unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud....
WRONG, you RINO!!!!
Anyone who wants to see biden and Jezebel inaugurated is either seriously deluded, or a traitor to our Republic!!!!
Before I scan it I’m going to guess how many times COVID is mentioned. I’ll say 25. Back in a minute....
Well, I was wrong. COVID is only mentioned 4 times.
