    PA Supreme Court openly disregarded laws passed by the legislature. Didn't even offer the pretense of construing the deadline. Squarely presented the Article II question.https://twitter.com/mjs_DC/status/1337065813627596805 …

    SCOTUS' conservatives spent the entire election season instructing federal courts not to intervene in state election processes. Then the PA Supreme Court ordered a modest expansion of voting rights, and four conservative justices tried to shut it down. Appalling hypocrisy.

        We can't take seriously any definition of "stealing the election" that includes "enforcing unambiguous state statutes as written by state legislatures."https://twitter.com/mjs_DC/status/1337073463639613440 …

        But the failure of Trump's post-election litigation does not mean that Trump never had a chance of stealing the election through the courts. It simply reflects the fact that the outcome did not come down to late-arriving ballots in PA, NC, or MN—and it might have! We got lucky!

        Only 10,000 ballots arrived after the deadline, nowhere near enough to overturn Biden’s 80,000 vote margin of victory. Regardless of how it’s interpreted, the issue is moot.

        Now, yes. Legally, however, it was very much a live issue before the election.

        Right, specifically because the litigants waited until AFTER they saw what the results were. Had months to complain beforehand, and didn't... so clearly demonstrated their issue is with the result and not the law.

        The PA deadline case reached the Court before the election. Court should have taken it then, which is what the dissenting conservative Justices wanted. The later filed cases are garbage, but that case wasn't.

        Or it was temporary equitable relief, required by a state constitutional provision, in light of a letter from the USPS General Counsel telling PA that based on our statutory deadlines there was a "significant risk" of voter disenfranchisement. https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=15323525778792704890 …pic.twitter.com/2n2waSMZv4

        Hey hey, no fair mentioning things that Dan specifically decided to lie to his readers about via omission.

        The PA Supreme Court decision was based on interpretation of state law and the free & equal elections clause of the PA State Constitution. Give me a break, Dan.

        My question is, why would the Supreme Court disenfranchise voters who followed the rules as it was, even if the PA Supreme Court expanded when mailed in votes could count. It was not the fault of the voters.
