I was thinking the same thing. Bush v. Gore went to 3 recounts before Gore conceded on 12/13. The post makes sense logically, but SCOTUS would never say "welp, at midnight DJT was ahead, so that's that. see ya, bitches". They're going to rule on merits of the case put before them, which is probably going to amount to trying to define a "legal" ballot in a jurisdiction.
