The Texas suit, later joined by other states, against Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Georgia, was a nice try, but it was always a long shot. Of course SCOTUS would be reluctant to grab so much power by ordering state legislatures to seat the right electors. Why? Because the power is already in the hands of the legislatures to do this.
Though we are non-lawyers, let's read these laws together, interpreting them minimally and plainly (something lawyers seem incapable of doing). The first federal law for our purposes, titled "Determination of controversy as to appointment of electors," says:
If any State shall have provided, by laws enacted prior to the day fixed for the appointment of the electors, for its final determination of any controversy or contest concerning the appointment of all or any of the electors of such State, by judicial or other methods or procedures, and such determination shall have been made at least six days before the time fixed for the meeting of the electors, such determination made pursuant to such law so existing on said day, and made at least six days prior to said time of meeting of the electors, shall be conclusive, and shall govern in the counting of the electoral votes as provided in the Constitution, and as hereinafter regulated, so far as the ascertainment of the electors appointed by such State is concerned.

We need more evidence. I think there is plenty but apparently not. Hoping Trump holds another big card. And also I get so sick of the democrats running around intimidating people yet talking about peace and healing. Use other to incite violence. But when a conservative pushes then they scream racist or something.
Sorry, cut and paste error.
The governors, AG’s and sate supreme courts circumvented the state legislatures in changing the election rules of the state, it is kicked up to the supreme court and they kick it back down to the state legislatures that are compromised, who is minding the store here?
Sounds like that ship has sailed
The article states the Texas case was a longshot.
Last week, it was “the case we’ve been waiting on”.
In the last 5 weeks, the goalposts have been moved so many times I can’t even count.
The Electoral College meets on Monday.
It’s time to start preparing for the 2022 elections.
“We need more evidence. I think there is plenty but apparently not.”
The Dominion issue has been quiet lately, probably because of the TX lawsuit taking priority. But the proof of the software flipping votes would be great evidence, added to what Rudy, Jenna, et al., have already pulled together.
The big deal is that nobody in power has the balls to jump in and do the right thing. Nobody.
We don’t need more evidence. It is all there, briefly stated and easy for a layman to understand, in the Texas motion for a hearing, at least in the four states. What we need is for an honest, courageous, patriotic person to look at the evidence so far.
problem is...no “upside” to that for ANYONE in DC
Do you really think the 2022 election outcome will be different after the Demonrats are in charge of everything? Do you really think they are suddenly going to be overcome with honesty?
The real game starts on the 16th, when the election investigation report comes out.........bada bing
Baloney or bolagna?
We need evidence that those needing more evidence have an IQ is above room temperature.
I think a lot of people aren’t ready psychologically for the fact that after this level of fraud, the electoral process is fundamentally broken.
It should be clear by now that even those contested states with GOP-majority legislatures have too many Never Trumper GOPe stooges to deliver a majority in support of his lawful victory.
Says a whole lot about how pervasive the uniparty rot and corruption in our country—at all levels.
Which one such person is going to be our difference maker?
RE: We need more evidence. I think there is plenty but apparently not
There is infinitely more evidence of voter fraud in these swing states than the evidence that Congress used to impeach Trump.
