It wasn't split though, it was 3 out of 7 who wrote favorably. That won't get it done. I WANT Wisconsin to flip, but I just don't have a ton of faith that the courts will act quickly enough for it to matter.
There are only 7 Justices on the Wisconsin SC. It has a 4-3 "Conservative" lead in it technically but Trump's lawsuit was rejected 4-3, so one of the conservative Justices went with the liberals.
How is it split? 4-3 is NOT a split! They said to go through the lower courts, which is going to take time that Trump doesn't have. I know that you and others here are trying to spin this in a positive way, but the fact that a conservative leaning court threw this case back to the lower court is NOT a good sign. I'm all ears if you would like to take a moment to help me understand how this is a positive signal because I would very much LOVE to view it the same way.

It was 4-5, no? At least on the important one?

That's not a rejection—they said to go through the lower courts first. The fact that it was split on that action is a positive signal for us.
