Not sure this is a good decision, but it was basically a reaction to the District Court. As in Bush v Gore, things get dicey when SCOTUS is asked to review a state election law written by a court, rather than by a legislature.https://twitter.com/WSJMattD4/status/1247304424894185474 …

The better decision in any sane situation would be to tell the legislature to live with the rules as written or fix them. Unfortunately, we have the Court getting the case the night before Election Day with a pandemic ongoing & nobody trying to resolve thru the political process.

This is, in any situation, not conducive to good judicial decisionmaking, particularly when the Justices can't even sit in the same room. Thus, a sloppy decision & an essentially lawless dissent.

Such a brilliant opinion none of the piggies wanted to sign it :)

Point one is sophist bullshit and the rest boils down to “Aside from the pandemic, there’s no evidence this election won’t proceed as normal.” Truly inspiring legal reasoning to encourage the transmission of a deadly virus
