I'm not too upset over this dismissal for two reasons. 1) The issues in the Texas case present many/most of the same issues as Mike Kelly's case (the one Alito just rejected) and 2) The Texas case is cleaner. I was concerned that Kelly's case had messy issues because it would require the U.S. Supreme Court to interprety (and overrule) Pennsylvania's own Supreme Court on Pennsylvania law. The Texas case avoids those problems.

this makes sense. The 9 - 0 ruling is telling in my mind.
