Don't get too excited, the suit isn't going anywhere, not because the Electoral Count Act isn't Constitutional, but the suit itself has material inaccuracies that will result in it being tossed (so probably not ruled on the merits)

December 14, 2020, where the State of Arizona (and several others) have appointed two competing slates of electors. (pg 2)

No state appointed competing slates of electors. Some states had LARPers show up at the capitol, but in order for those votes to count the Legislature of those states would have to vote to appoint them, none did. You can check for yourself on the National Archives, if there was more than set of electors they would be posted here for each State: https://www.archives.gov/electoral-college/2020. These are the electors that will be given to Pence.

The Biden electors were likewise not appointed by the legislatures of those states.

Incorrect. Go to the archive link in the post you are responding to. Each of those states followed their current state law to issue those certificates. Read the certificates - the one from Wisconsin even states the court case on the issue has been resolved with a final ruling.

Who determines state electorates according to the Constitution? None of the legislatures voted on them. The Trump electors have as much standing as the Biden electors.

No, the Trump electors don't have standing as official electors.

The legislatures established the laws for voting, they do not actually vote to choose the electors directly. Trump's team has been trying to get the legislatures to meet and name the electors for Trump due to the fraud, but none have successfully done that as of now.

Each state is different, but they each followed the laws in effect and followed the US Code and sent their slate of electors to the archivist and they have been recorded.

The path to victory is to DENY Biden the 270 by challenging the electors from these states on January 6th.
