They're raising now the prospect that maybe Judge Brann could order the results de-certified, but that's not in the amended complaint they're appealing over.

And they don't seem to have asked the Third Circuit to enjoin Pennsylvania from certifying its results, which is supposed to happen tomorrow. That's ... the normal thing you'd do if you really wanted to stop the state from certifying its results tomorrow.

Trump's appeal makes astonishingly little sense. Trump's lawyers said they want to get to SCOTUS, but this will return them to the district court. Because they didn't challenge the district court's decision that they lacked standing, if they win here they'll lose on that later.

And even if they come up with a better standing argument for the parts of the amended complaint that would survive, they're still in front of a judge who's already ruled he doesn't have the power to disenfranchise all of Pennsylvania, and they didn't challenge that part.
