“Second, Texas’s equal protection claim fails where it does not identify a group that has been given pref- erence or advantage—the hallmark of such a claim. And there has been no devaluation of any person’s— or group of persons’—votes above or beneath any oth- ers’. There has been no violation of equal protection.”
They HAVE to be willfully misunderstanding the equal protection case Texas is making. Otherwise, they’re just fucking retarded.
SCOTUS is not going to like this paragraph (page 23): "to the extent Texas refers to “millions” of absent voter ballots being disseminated unlawfully, setting aside the fact that the Secretary’s processes are not unlawful, there is no way of knowing how many voters used the Secretary’s mailing to obtain a ballot absent physically examining every application in the possession of every clerk in the state. With respect to the online platform, a query could be performed to determine how many voters used the platform to request an absent voter ballot. But in either case, there is no way to associate the voter who used a particular application with his or her ballot after it is voted.
The cast ballot is anonymous, but the way in which that ballot was requested/received by the voter should be recorded in the voting file. Saying there is "no way of knowing" how the ballot was requested sounds like a very irresponsible and careless system.
They literally say within the same paragraph on page 16 that the allegations against MI are "not true" and that "the supreme court of michigan refused to allow an audit". #How can they know there was no fraud if they did not conduct an audit???????
“Texas fails to identify by name a single Mich- igan voter who voted when they should not have—let alone anything resembling widespread election fraud.”
This is not at all what the Texas case is focused on. Did these people not even read the filing?
This is mind boggling. The Dems are even stupider than I thought. They are conflating the previous litigation filed by trumps lawyers with the Texas suit which isn’t even focused on fraud, but rather specifically argues for the unconstitutional nature of the defendant states’ changes to election procedure...
PEDES PLEASE - They (TX) is NOT filing the suit pledging FRAUD!
If you paid attention to the Constitutional Law Expert at the GA evidence hearing (he is a member of GA federal court bar and SCOTUS bar!!). Stated the constitutional issue here which IS WHAT TX IS GOING TO PRESENT TO SCOTUS!!!!
Is that theses state LEGISLATURES creates “voting laws” prior to the election that MUST BE FOLLOWED VERBATIM!!! If it does not (and ALL OF THESE STATES BROKE THEIR STATE LEGISLATURES LAWS) then the vote is declared UNCONSTITUTIONAL which is exactly what SCOTUS IS THERE FOR!
SCOTUS will declare it unconstitutional and send it back to the state legislatures. NOW Rudy Guliani and friends have already presented the PILES OF EVIDENCE OF FRAUD which the state legislature will consider when voting to take the vote from the people and give it to the elector. They send their electors (which is ALREADY DETERMINED by the FACT these states have Republican legislature MAJORITY therefor ALL of these states appointment electors will vote Trump hence overturning the election!
Within the same paragraph: "The State disagrees that any part of this process
is unlawful. These same claims are pending in Michigan’s court of claims."

Yup. Basically "our courts said there's no problems, so Texas can fuck itself"
They’re willfully misrepresenting the Equal Protection argument as well.

So they’re arguing against themselves and proving plaintiffs point, essentially. Good lord. Amateur hour over there.
I think I see what you’re pointing out, but would assume that it would be presumed that a cast ballot should be anonymous. Explain please.
The cast ballot is anonymous, but the way in which that ballot was requested/received by the voter should be recorded in the voting file. Saying there is "no way of knowing" how the ballot was requested sounds like a very irresponsible and careless system.
“To begin, Texas has not alleged a sufficient case or controversy to support its standing to invoke this Court’s original jurisdiction.”
Kek
The matter of standing is actually the simplest and clearest issue of all.
Whoever is elected president of the USA is...president of all the states, yes?
So if one or more states unlawfully affect the outcome of the presidential election, they are affecting every state in the union...
I’d agree with that logic. We will see if SCOTUS does as well.
