Texas Files Lawsuit at SCOTUS Against GA, PA, MI, and WI

Good for Texas. Lets hope the SC takes a look at this fraudulent election cause there is all kinds of evidence out there. And those states did indeed not follow the constitution.

There are no constitutional issues. The Supreme Court is not a investigatory court. They require proof and sate and federal judges have said they have provided no proof.

Seems Texas has plenty of proof. Lets see what the Texas Supreme Court does. I'd say the SC will be getting the case, how bout you??
 
Dont mess with Texas, ya freaking commies!


Texas is asking the Supreme Court to order the states to allow their legislatures to appoint their electors. The lawsuit says:
Certain officials in the Defendant States presented the pandemic as the justification for ignoring state laws regarding absentee and mail-in voting. The Defendant States flooded their citizenry with tens of millions of ballot applications and ballots in derogation of statutory controls as to how they are lawfully received, evaluated, and counted. Whether well intentioned or not, these unconstitutional acts had the same uniform effect—they made the 2020 election less secure in the Defendant States. Those changes are inconsistent with relevant state laws and were made by non-legislative entities, without any consent by the state legislatures. The acts of these officials thus directly violated the Constitution.
This case presents a question of law: Did the Defendant States violate the Electors Clause by taking non-legislative actions to change the election rules that would govern the appointment of presidential electors? These non-legislative changes to the Defendant States’ election laws facilitated the casting and counting of ballots in violation of state law, which, in turn, violated the Electors Clause of Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution. By these unlawful acts, the Defendant States have not only tainted the integrity of their own citizens’ vote, but their actions have also debased the votes of citizens in Plaintiff State and other States that remained loyal to the Constitution.
Texas approached the Supreme Court directly because Article III provides that it is the court of first impression on subjects where it has original jurisdiction, such as disputes between two or more states.

Texas is the crookedest state in the union. Texas has no standing as they cannot prove any harm.

Asking for more consistency and uniformity in the Electors Clause is “crooked”? How? The lawsuit brought on by Texas will most likely not change the outcome of the ‘20 Election but it will give US some necessary structure around voting integrity moving forward and not having future elections be conducted like some third world, banana republic.

The state of Texas has no standing and cannot demonstrate any harm. Any structure is up to the individual states Texas has no say in this. You are the ones who are trying to turn this into a third world banana republic. These arguments have been rejected by federal and state judges. Republican and Democrat and even judges appointed bt Trump.

Its more theater for dipshits.

First, Texas doesn't have standing for the election laws in other states. This alone ends any viable legal challenge. But wait, there's more!

Second, the States in question have found no violations of their own election laws. The issues have been adjudicated. Killing the legal challenge again. But lets kick the dead horse, shall we?

Third, if this were genuinely a constitutional challenge to mail in ballots and not a political stunt, Texas would have filed suit against ALL states that used mail in ballots. Including, say, California. They didn't. They targeted only the swing States. Stripping the suit of even its internal logic.

Fourth, the Doctrine of Laches. If Texas genuinely felt that these changes would have invalidated Texas votes, they could have filed suit months and months ago. Instead, they waited to see results of the election. And only then filed suits based on those results. That's not how the law works. If the harm is in the process, you don't want to see if you like the results of the process before you sue.

Fifth, there's no evidence of widespread voter fraud that the suit's logic is predicated on.

Sixth, the remedy that Texas is seeking is extreme. Delaying the electoral vote itself? Disenfranchising tens of millions of voters? Its absolutely unprecedented. Extreme remedies require extreme evidence. And Texas has none.

Seventh, waiting until the Safe Harbor day to file the suit demonstrates that Texas has no real interest in pursuing their suit. As they waited until the last possible moment to file, when their suit had the least possibility of being heard and the remedy offered.

The Texas Supreme Court? What relevance would the Texas Supreme Court have for votes in another State?
 
This can't be serious. Texas has no standing to sue another state on that state's conduct under state law. Texas has no interest in another state's decision to send out ballot applications, nor any interest in whether those who received ballots in response to submitting the application returned those ballots, or how these ballots were handled once received. The pols who run the Texas government become more and more bizarre each day.

They have standing if they believe fraudulent practices in other States made their EV's worthless.

No do not haqve standing and they cannot demonstrate any harm. The arguments are the same ones that Trump has beem making ad nauseum and been thrown out ad nauseum.

They are the ones issuing the charges which they have the right to do. From what I've read those states didn't follow the Constitution in relation to ballots and mail in ballots. Its in another thread. Look it up.

The process is being worked. Again, I am more concerned with future elections and having integrity in place and not ad hoc extensions surrounding Mail-In Ballots from Battle Ground states. The ad hoc , changing of rules outside of process and structure is what I feel is third world. We as a Nation are better than that.

So much for "state's rights."

That's why Texas went to the SC, to protect the rights of it's citizens to a fair EC process.

Note they are not trying to prove fraud, they are trying to say the processes these States used to circumvent normal election law due to COVID made the votes insecure.

Its a silly suit.

First, they lack standing. Second, if they genuinely had a problem with the process, they would have sued months and months ago. Instead, they waited to see how the 'corrupted' process worked out for them and only then sued? The Doctrine of Laches will do a merry jig on the corpse of this DOA suit.

The issues of extensions and the process of mail in voting varied from State to State. Texas is making a blanket suit encompassing all of them, making general accusations that aren't tailored to the specific conditions on the individual states they are trying to fold into the suit

Bull shit----------the dems making up thousands of fraudulent votes to steal election certainly harms everyone else in other states as it is used to steal elections and in this case puts a communist sell out Joe biden in to sell us all down the river not to mention allows him and his family to continue to rape little girls. It harms texas....and florida.....and alaska and everyone else.

The courts have found nothing to substantiate any claim Trump ia making.

The Texas Supreme Court has no right to issue 'charges'. They are an appeals court.

And the Texas Supreme Court has no right to issue 'charges' on other States. They are an appeals court exclusive to the State of Texas.

We can also talk about the corruption of the Post Office. Trump deliberately tried to slow down the mail so a few days extension was more than justified.

They couldn't sue until they could show harm, and that is only after the election.

These non-legislative changes to the Defendant States’ election laws facilitated the casting and counting of ballots in violation of state law, which, in turn, violated the Electors Clause of Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution. By these unlawful acts, the Defendant States have not only tainted the integrity of their own citizens’ vote, but their actions have also debased the votes of citizens in Plaintiff State and other States that remained loyal to the Constitution.
Texas approached the Supreme Court directly because Article III provides that it is the court of first impression on subjects where it has original jurisdiction, such as disputes between two or more states.

Texas is the crookedest state in the union. Texas has no standing as they cannot prove any harm.

Asking for more consistency and uniformity in the Electors Clause is “crooked”? How? The lawsuit brought on by Texas will most likely not change the outcome of the ‘20 Election but it will give US some necessary structure around voting integrity moving forward and not having future elections be conducted like some third world, banana republic.

The state of Texas has no standing and cannot demonstrate any harm. Any structure is up to the individual states Texas has no say in this. You are the ones who are trying to turn this into a third world banana republic. These arguments have been rejected by federal and state judges. Republican and Democrat and even judges appointed bt Trump.

All Texas has to do is get their AG or their SC to pass it along to the SC.

They don't just pass things. There has to be constitutional issues.

There are. Find the thread and read it. Its on this board.
 
This can't be serious. Texas has no standing to sue another state on that state's conduct under state law. Texas has no interest in another state's decision to send out ballot applications, nor any interest in whether those who received ballots in response to submitting the application returned those ballots, or how these ballots were handled once received. The pols who run the Texas government become more and more bizarre each day.

They have standing if they believe fraudulent practices in other States made their EV's worthless.

No do not haqve standing and they cannot demonstrate any harm. The arguments are the same ones that Trump has beem making ad nauseum and been thrown out ad nauseum.

Their EC votes have been countered by illegal changes to voting laws in the States in question.

They have not. There have been no illegal changes.
