I think the Supreme Court should have heard the case so as to give a clear message and bring down judgement for clarity.
As for standing, I am not sure it would be wise to allow states to sue other states for how they conduct their business. For example, what would stop California for suing Texas over gun laws?
Even if Texas did have standing, there is also a requirement that only Texas can bring up the case in order to invoke the SC's original jurisdiction. The fact that DJT was intervening in the case makes this a difficult one to argue.
Personally, I believe the cases with the best chances of getting a hearing are the ones filed by the Trump campaign. They have unquestionable standing.
So...what’s your opinion about Texas not having standing to sue another state, etc?
