Only so long as they can show that Texas voters were harmed. Are you saying Texas voters are harmed by how voters voted in Georgia?
I suggest you read the responses by the 4 states. The court will be using their reasoning for denying Texas' lawsuit.
That would be Dutch Uncle. Not me.
I don't think they did disenfranchise their own voters. They voted and the votes were certified. There was nothing unconstitutional--state laws determine how the state will choose its electors.
It is not a national election case but a dispute between states; but, there is no dispute.
And Cruz said Trump is a narcissist who lies with every word.
But, I don't think that would prevent him from accepting a SC nomination.
The Texas case is not about voter fraud.
This type of case HAS to be ONLY taken up by the S.C. No lower courts can be allowed to.
The SC isn't requires to take any case. They are free to refer it to a lower court for fact finding before they take it or they can just say there is no federal case there at all.

The State election laws in question were passed by entities other than the State legislators, making them unconstitutional. Some States even violated their own State constitutions.
Stillllllllllllllllll don't get it, eh? Why should the other 46 states be disenfranchised, penalized and robbed of a legal FEDERAL election result because of 4 who
did NOT follow the proper Constitutional rules of the election process? Thought the left loved those 'majority wins' type of things.

It is a dispute over the national election.
They don't know the difference between federal elections and state elections.
Get over yourself.
Well you know the typical Democrat on this board. Just talks shit to make themselves feel like they have at least more intellect than a worm. Not true, but it keeps them from offing themselves.
The electoral college provision in the Constitution that grants that power to state legislatures is about choosing electors. All those states are choosing electors based on those laws.
The changes to election law like accepting ballots late are not part of the process of choosing electors. When administering the provisions of election law executive branch always has some discretion to accommodate special situations. Surely if a hurricane was headed to the area and there was an evacuation the state could delay the election without violating its own laws. Presidents make such changes regularly with executive orders.
How are they robbed? Did they lose their electoral college votes? Were their voters unable to vote? Nothing changed other than the person elected President is not the one that Texas voted for. I'm sorry but the Constitution does not require that every state for Texas' preferred candidate.
By the way, Texas changed its rules during the election as well in closing election drop off sites at the order of the Governor and with the help of a court ruling. It looks like the other 49 states were cheated by Texas' rule changes if Texas is allowed to sue other states then other states can sue Texas. If Texas' elections are also overturned then Texas will have no representation in the House since none of those elections would be valid. Without Texas having any legislators, the Democratic House can refuse to accept a slate of electors from Texas which will then allow the Democratic House to vote for the next President with Texas having no vote at all. Dang. Biden is President and Texas doesn't get any representation until they can hold a new election to vote in Representatives and a Senator.
