The court's 5-3 ruling means that absentee ballots will be counted only if they are in the hands of municipal clerks by the time polls close on Nov. 3.

The justices determined the courts shouldn't be the ones to decide the election rules amid the coronavirus pandemic that is surging in Wisconsin and across the world.

"The Constitution provides that state legislatures — not federal judges, not state judges, not state governors, not other state officials — bear primary responsibility for setting election rules," Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote in a concurring opinion.

Well can someone fucking explain it to me!?

Where are all the definite after polls ballots at? What is the “boom” here?

PA says they stopped when Alito said segregate. They all counted for days but did they accept new without a doubt?

Alito will want to hear the Pa case after this one. They fkd with his order and ignored it. You don't blow off a scotus order.

But the Texas case deals with that saying PA you shit in your bed lie in it. Ie

You were ordered to segregate ballots, now we will never be able to call your election fair, or know who actually won, therefore, the Constitution says your legislature gets to vote what they believe was the will of the people.

PA in their response said they did segregate the ballots. Do we have proof they did not?

If we take them at their word they directly violated the written order of a Supreme Court Justice. Wonder how pissed Alito is...
