Dark day for SCOTUS

These cases provide us with an ideal opportunity to address just what authority nonlegislative officials have to set election rules, and to do so well before the next election cycle. The refusal to do so is inexplicable.

One wonders what this Court waits for. We failed to settle this dispute before the election, and thus provide clear rules. Now we again fail to provide clear rules for future elections. [Clarence Thomas dissent]

Thomas is a moron. The SC screwed up with the destruction of the voting rights act. They don't meddle in state laws re. elections. If they did, they would do away with the voter suppression in Ga, and soon in Pa.
 

This is a stain on the court.

They won’t even look at the evidence because the issue is ‘moot’? Moot to who? Even if there’s a scant possibility that illegal votes were cast in a national election the issue is not ‘moot’.

But apparently there ‘are more pressing concerns’ for the country, like clearing the road for a peak at Trump’s tax returns.

I’m literally embarrassed for this court.

APPARENTLY GLARING CONSTITUTIONAL VIOLATIONS ARE "MOOT", TO THE US SUPREME COURT.

THE DEEP STATE IS DEEPER THAN WE THOUGHT....

Not had you been listening to me, I have been warning for months that this court is made up of inferior people, that the threats the Revolution has been making to remake the court if they dont mind would work.

I'm not embarrassed, I'm angry.

If there is evidence somebody voted illegally or committed fraud they can still be prosecuted and some already have been.

I think it is moot because the Supreme Court has no authority to overturn the election and it would not have affected the election outcome. The justices are being the opposite from "activist" judges that legislate from the bench. They are leaving the state governments the power to determine election matters.

"That decision to rewrite the rules seems to have affected too few ballots to change the outcome of any federal election," Associate Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in a dissent.'

But he went on to say, the Court has a responsibility to ensure states are staying within the constitutional lines in case future electoral outcomes *are* affected by state election law shenanigans.

Thomas was basically saying the Court was derelict in its duty and he’s right. Whether it affected the outcome is irrelevant. What’s relevant is *the point of law* that is at question.

But since the Court ruled it a moot question, this sends a clear signal to the states that they can play loose with their election ‘laws’ in the future. Democrats hear them loud and clear. Republicans would do well to get on board with it or just keep losing elections.

Our republic may be F*d but hey, the Court cleared the way for NY to take a peak at Trump’s tax returns. So they did accomplish something yesterday. The day wasn’t a total loss.

What a great day for our [banana] republic!
