[Dr. Franklin]

SCOTUS is not required to hear the case. Even when SCOTUS was required to hear the Texas v. Pennsylvania case, SCOTUS declined to hear the case. SCOTUS hears few cases by petition for certiorari. SCOTUS may decide that its just too busy hearing cases to set policy for it to deal with a massive violation of the civil rights of a candidate and the political rights of a state. Lately, SCOTUS doesn't like to address "political" cases, like weather election laws have been followed or have illegal votes been counted.

That may be the case, but if they duck this one, the Bill of Rights is basically cancelled.
