” The states must justify why their unconstitutional cheat-by-mail-in ballots that were not passed through their respective legislatures did not disenfranchise the states like Texas, et al. where voters did everything according to the Constitution”

Oh geez... good luck with that!!!

The argument is more complicated than that: if the Court allows the state courts and executives in WI, MI and PA to change election requirements when they will, the Constitution's delegation of authority to state legislatures to control the election process is severely weakened, and the legislature's ability to respond to changing circumstances as it sees fit (not state courts or executives) is severely compromised.

In brief, they are saying, "We, as the Texas legislature, ask you to intervene before our own courts, executive and hundreds of lawsuits weaken our ability to hold regular and stable elections."

And you’re got only ONE DAY to write that justification!!!

I’m still wondering why — with all the legal minds on this Forum — this lawsuit came in out of the blue.

I agree with those who say SCOTUS may want to handle the Texas case because it wraps all the State lawsuits in a neat little bundle.

Very hopeful...
