As set forth in the accompanying brief and Complaint in Intervention, election officials in each of the Defendant States altered or otherwise failed to enforce state election laws in the conduct of the 2020 election. The violations of state election law, which is the “manner” the Legislatures of the States have established for choosing presidential electors, violates the Electors Clause of the U.S. Constitution and thus this matter arises under federal law. See Bush v Gore, 531 U.S. 98, 113 (2000) (“significant departure from the legislative scheme for appointing Presidential electors presents a federal constitutional question”) (Rehnquist, C.J., concurring). Moreover, as explained more fully in the complaint filed by Texas, the number of ballots affected by illegal conduct of state elections officials greatly exceeds the current margin between Plaintiff in Intervention and his opponent in the election for the Office of President in each of the respective Defendant States, and the four Defendant States collectively have a sufficient number of electoral votes to affect the result of the vote in the Electoral College for the Office of President. Proposed Plaintiff in Intervention therefore clearly has a stake in the outcome of this litigation.

This Court should grant leave to file the Complaint in Intervention.

December 9, 2020 Respectfully submitted,

John C. Eastman

I like John Eastman. He was on Newsmax last night and was a frequent guest on Laura Ingraham. I don’t watch FNC anymore.

It will be interesting to see if the court grants leave to appeal. I have been pretty negative about all this all the way along as no one has proved fraud or other accusation in a court to a point that will change the election. This case is not about fraud but I am not very optimistic based on what a lot of legal pundits are saying.

I suspect the court will make its decision quite quickly on whether to allow the appeal once the respondents get their submission in to the Court by Thursday.
