Hate to be a pain, but this probably means when crooked states do awful things with their election laws, the supremes will probably back them up, too. Up

That’s why everyone must pay attention to electing the right conservatives as Sec. of State, state AG, etc.

Prefer that the states make these decisions rather than a centralized federal government that treats the states like administrative units, not as the creators of the federal government. The 10th Amendment is there for a reason. The Constitution defines/limits the federal government.

I guess you never read the US Constitution. The state legislatures are THE election authority PERIOD.

Not so much. Witness RGB 'suddenly' discovering state's rights in Bush v. Gore dissent.

No, this is the kind of decision we fought for, we won for, and that the Constitution deserves. Alito send an unsubtle signal in this case for people who understand SCOTUS opinions ... he is damn mad about Roberts denying him a 4th to take Republican Party PA on cert; and Alito is also reminding Roberts that nothing is forever...
