Texas sued for illegal and fraudulent election causing damage to their national representation. It has nothing to do with what the PA election laws are, but PA's election did violate the US constitution.
As a professor you should be able to understand that every state in the US has the same president and VP.
That is true. But the same could be argued for California wanting to sue Indiana for their strict voter ID laws. If the SC allowed this case, there would be a plethora of such cases in the future.
Also, the way Texas filed the case was by invoking the SC's original jurisdiction. Meaning only Texas must have standing. This isn't the case.
Our best hope is for the contested state's AGs and Republican-led legislatures to file cases.
In that case, Texas must demonstrate that only Texas has standing and no other state. That's the other requirement for invoking the original jurisdiction of SCOTUS. And I think it's difficult to convince the court. Not impossible, but difficult.

CA should absolutely sue if they feel that Indiana voter ID laws jeopardized a federal election and I see 0 problem with this.
