This was, of course, the first vote of the Supreme Court since the death of Justice Scalia over the weekend.
We don't, however, actually know the vote. We only know that a majority didn't vote for a stay & that < four justices voted for cert.
Justices can, but don't need to, publicly note dissents to such orders of the court. #SCOTUS [Thread corrected to have proper vote info.]
@chrisgeidner true enough but if there is no recorded dissents, I think it's fair to not assume there are any.
@chrisgeidner said "true enough" to your comments ... know some will dissent w/o comment ... ALSO said it fair not to assume it
@JoePaulson2 I think it's only fair to assume there are no noted dissents.
@chrisgeidner okay ... "fair" is a judgment call ... if they aren't going to publicly dissent, I will take the default is they are not
@JoePaulson2 I mean, you're free to do what you want. I will continue to say what I say bc it is the most accurate way to say it.
