The Supreme Court on Monday rejected a push for California to set aside thousands of mail ballots from people President Trump’s administration claims are noncitizens, a decision that comes on the eve of the pivotal midterm elections.
The high court refused to intervene in a case involving 20,000 people the Republican administration flagged as likely noncitizens on the largely Democratic state’s voter rolls.
It was the latest in a flurry of election-related litigation the day before the midterm elections, which will decide control of Congress for the last two years of Trump’s second term.
That was quick.
Only took an hour or two for the ‘no’ to come down. It’s nice to see SCOTUS function at a basic level for once.
A fortunate save, but one we shouldnt rely on. Who knows how the supreme court will act for other ballots in other states.
‘Shouldn’t’, is true.
But the judiciary has been the only check on Donald thus far, so unfortunately, it’s all we’ve got.
Are they finally learning the lessons of mouse v cookie?
