From the article: “The political calculus of the all-too-political Chief Justice John Roberts seems to have been that a Biden landslide would exculpate the court’s decisions not to halt dubious last-minute election law changes in states such as Pennsylvania and North Carolina. “

If you believe in original intent, and if you believe in adhering to the words of the Constitution, not a latter day “interpretation” of the words, the 10th Amendment states: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.”

The Constitution does not delegate the power to administer and control elections to any branch of the United States government. Therefore the power to administer election is left to the states, and the people to administer. If the Supreme Court follows the Constitution, it should not interfere with the administration of the election by the states.

If we want to live by the rule of law, as the founders prescribed, we can’t be selective. If we are selective in adhering to the Constitution, then we are no different from the Democrats.

Get off your soapbox. The legislators are bound by their constitutional duty to fix an obviously stolen election. If they won’t do it, then it’s civil war.

We are better than the Dems. We don’t steal elections. So if they break the law then we have a 2nd amendment.
