Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton today filed a lawsuit against Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin in the United States Supreme Court. The four states exploited the COVID-19 pandemic to justify ignoring federal and state election laws and unlawfully enacting last-minute changes, thus skewing the results of the 2020 General Election. The battleground states flooded their people with unlawful ballot applications and ballots while ignoring statutory requirements as to how they were received, evaluated and counted.

“Trust in the integrity of our election processes is sacrosanct and binds our citizenry and the States in this Union together. Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin destroyed that trust and compromised the security and integrity of the 2020 election. The states violated statutes enacted by their duly elected legislatures, thereby violating the Constitution. By ignoring both state and federal law, these states have not only tainted the integrity of their own citizens’ vote, but of Texas and every other state that held lawful elections,” said Attorney General Paxton. “Their failure to abide by the rule of law casts a dark shadow of doubt over the outcome of the entire election. We now ask that the Supreme Court step in to correct this egregious error.”

Elections for federal office must comport with federal constitutional standards. For presidential elections, each state must appoint its electors to the electoral college in a manner that complies with the Constitution. The Electors Clause requirement that only state legislatures may set the rules governing the appointment of electors and elections and cannot be delegated to local officials. The majority of the rushed decisions, made by local officials, were not approved by the state legislatures, thereby circumventing the Constitution.

Not to be outdone here, I run into this as well. This may make for some interesting reading over the next few hours; or days.

Some of my best friends are liberal anti-trumpers.

What kills me is that they cannot believe that the POTUS is fighting this. They cannot believe any voting may have been compromised.

But these same people bellyached for 3+ years about Russian.

I just laugh. We agree to disagree on politics, it doesn't impact our relationships and I'm thankful.

There is NO DOUBT in my mind this election was tampered with. But who's to say how many others have been.

That is true. I, received, shit in the mail every day x 5 for every voting age person in the house.

Kennedy/Nixon '60, the most recent, most likely difference making election involving meaningful corruption.

There was a PBS or History Channel documentary on the titans of industry (Carnegie, Morgan and Rockefeller) agreed to work together to see McKinley elected and/or reelected to avoid the populism of Bryan. @Sid Youngleman might provide his recollections of that...

And what/whom did they get when McKinley was assassinated? The ultimate trust-buster. Be careful what you wish for, including checking to see who else is on the ticket. (I'm looking at you, Kamala.)

Oh the irony.

Precisely.

Very interesting. In this video, Leigh Dundas explains the Trump Executive Order from September 2018.
There could very well be far reaching consequences from this EO.
