Let me predict the outcome....... Hmm no standing

Greg-2012 [S] 226 points ago +235 / -9

No, I believe this one has standing since it was filed by POTUS. If SCOTUS wants to dismiss this lawsuit they will have to find a different reason.

They dismissed Texas when the country was founded with the explicit instruction that states ALWAYS have standing in disputes with other states.

Constitution_jd 166 points ago +168 / -2

Attorney here, this isn't the case. Standing is not explicitly in the constitution - it wasn't formed as a doctrine until the 1920s or so. We need to stop treating standing as a proper constitutional doctrine.

Constitution vests original and exclusive jurisdiction in SCotUS for State v. State matters, but it doesn't address standing.

Standing is a bullshit excuse to not hear a case - it is loosely derived from the "case and controversy" requirement. If I recall correctly, the first use was to avoid a valid challenge to the ratification of the 19th amendment - basically, SCotUS didn't want to be seen as "taking the vote away from women" so they (I want to say Justice Brandeis) invented standing as an excuse not to hear the case.

PhilippElhaus 42 points ago +44 / -2 (edited)

Yeah they chickened out on the TX case, was absolutely obvious.

I saw plenty of people that made all sorts of mental gymnastics and tried to interpret their one pager. But they chickened out. That's the bottomline.

They will do so with the other cases unless some serious pressure is mounted upon them.

Except for Thomas and Alito, they are soft people that rather go along with a nice brainwash than confronting this ugly mess.

The only acceptable ruling in all this can only be to strike down Joe and send him back to hell. They have no intrest in taking all the heat for this.

A distinction without a difference.

You are correct that standing is an excuse not to hear a case. They can't humor every case from any litigant or the courts could be overwhelmed in frivolity.

"Constitution vests original and exclusive jurisdiction in SCotUS for State v. State matters."

Or to laymen: Standing

The alternative is potentially war between the states.

ArchbishopofKekistan 2 points ago +2 / -0

The only acceptable excuse is they would rather rule on the POTUS suits, as they are much less controversial. I also want them to shit on Robert's pedo face on live TV, but I'll be happy with the former.

Repost of a comment I just made elsewhere:

Texas was claiming that the way other states enforce their election laws somehow hurt Texas's ability to cast its own electoral votes. This is not a strong argument, in my opinion as a non-attorney.

Texas's electoral votes were unchanged. Allowing states to sue each other because of how other states enforce their laws is a slippery slope, which could result in Texas being sued by other states for being too stringent about abortion, or who knows what.

The more directly hurt party, if there is election fraud, is a) the citizens of the state where the fraud occurs, because they are deprived of having a say in their government, and b) the political candidate who won the legal vote but lost the official vote due to rampant fraud.

P.S. I've been told that the SCOTUS routinely rejects 99% of cases they are sent, and they prefer to hear clean-cut cases rather than weak cases when choosing to take cases having to do with the same issue--in this case, 2020 election fraud...

They’re direct from the district courts (and not from district panels, either). Powell decided not to bother with the circuit courts because of time. Not sure if scotus has ever taken a case that skipped that step.

IAmLoyal2USA 2 points ago +2 / -0

I agree! I was just commenting to my husband this morning that scotus might be trying to find the perfect case so that it is so locked down and airtight and that even the other side will have to believe that there was true fraud and that this election must be overturned. However, that being said, the illiterate low information voters, on both sides, probably won't be able to understand anything that their overlords at CNN and Facebook haven't told them.

My prediction is that they will simply refuse to hear it. Docking means they received it, not that they will hear it. Although it’s possible they will collect all of these cases and turn them into one case if the right case ever gets there in time.

sketchy_at_best 11 points ago +11 / -0

When the PA case made it to the SCOTUS docket, I thought to myself, "OK, there's a big chunk of the EC votes we need, but what's the plan for the rest?" I thought this because PA was the biggest clusterfuck of election clusterfucks the world has ever seen, with state issue after state issue and two major US constitutional issues that three sitting justices ruled on and two argued the damned case.

Then they refused to hear it, and I knew SCOTUS was no longer an option.

So what if a court, or several, rules that there was widespread election fraud in Feb 2021? Are they expecting us to say ´well shucks, Biden cheated, but is now President and will stay President´? Even if they impeach and remove him, Kamala ran on the same fraudulent ticket. What legal option would be left to remedy this clusterfuck of an election? At that point I only see 4th box options, to be honest.

I was the FS chapter president at my law school 2004-2006. Attended many national FS events, including the national student symposium at Columbia Univ. in NYC in February 2006. The keynote speaker at that event was none other than neocon NeverTrumper John Bolton. Everyone fawned all over him. Hundreds of high profile government lawyers, GOPe politicians, and federal court judges were in attendance (and at the social events with law students that followed). The FS does a great job of getting the conservative message out and is the only safe place for conservative law students in a sea of liberal idiot law students and professors. Still, the idolatry they heaped on Bolton always left a bad taste in my mouth. FS recommended John Roberts. They are suspect.
