Here is some useful reading on standing in the legal sense: https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/standing

It seems to me SCOTUS' rationale is that the state as an entity has not been injured. The people? Ja, but the state was not representing a group of people as plaintiff. In any case, I'm focusing on what we've had going on all along, which is what Trump's team is still working on.

** Edit ** The state wasn't representing John Smith from Austin who had his vote negated by dead guys voting in Detroit. TX sued as though the state of TX had itself been harmed, not John Smith.
