The president’s legal team on Sunday filed a new petition with the Supreme Court asking to reverse a trio of decisions from the Pennsylvania Supreme Court easing some of the state’s election rules related to signature verification, Election Day observation and mail-in ballot declarations. They are also asking the court to allow the Pennsylvania General Assembly to pick its own slate of electors.
“Collectively, these three decisions resulted in counting approximately 2.6 million mail ballots in violation of the law as enacted by the Pennsylvania Legislature,” Trump’s attorney John Eastman wrote in the filing.
The campaign team said the decision by the state’s top court to extend the statutory deadline for receipt of mail ballots from 8 p.m. on Election Day to 5 p.m. three days later had “national importance” and may violate the U.S. Constitution.

he president’s campaign alleged in a statement that the Pennsylvania State Supreme Court’s changing of the law was a violation of Article II of the U.S. Constitution and Bush v. Gore.
The petition cites a “related Pennsylvania case” where Justice Samuel Alito and two other justices observed the constitutionality of the state court’s decision to extend the statutory deadline for receipt of mail ballots from 8 p.m. on Election Day to 5 p.m. three days later.
The campaign team said the constitutionality of the court’s decision had “national importance” and may violate the U.S. Constitution.

I won’t hold my breath, when it comes to SCOTUS, doing anything. Our judicial system, is made up of cowards, who have thrown our Constitution, into the trash.
I agree.. This is just like trying to stop a flooding dam, by putting a band aid on it.. AIN’T gonna work. THESE JUDGES are too bloody content to let the dems steal the election, to DO A DAMN THING To stop it.
The Pennsylvania “judge” had no authority to change any part of state election law, the state legislature has sole authority under the Constitution of the United States. The decisions of this “judge” did change the outcome of the election and did violate the Constitution.
The ballots that arrived after the cutoff point established by the state legislature are not valid votes and can NOT be included in the voting.
The sad thing is… everyone knows that …and I do mean EVERYONE understands that law… but for some God forsaken evil reason NO ONE in our useless overpaid government (excluding President Trump.. the only one with testicles) refuse to own up to it.
Defund the government!
SHOULD not be included. BUT I won’t hold my breath, to see ANY Judge actually agree with the way the law is WROTE… LET alone our constitution…
Pennsylvania State Supreme Court’s changing of the law was a violation of Article II of the U.S. Constitution and Bush v. Gore.
If SCOTUS will not defend the U.S. Constitution then they serve no real purpose and should be disbanded.
Not just disbanded, but hung, drawn, quartered, shot, stabbed, poisoned, burned at the stake, and then launched into space, one way…
“But wait. But wait. But wait. People might be upset. Twitter might ‘explode’. And Google and Facebook might dox us. My house might be TP’d! Oh no. we can’t do that. Who cares if a bunch of malefactors negate the vote of communities of color in Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Detroit and Atlanta. Who cares if their malicious deeds disenfranchise 75 million voters nationally. We could not possibly be expected to actually make a judicial ruling as the arbiter of conflicts between branches or between criminals and the Constitution.” John G. Roberts, Jr., Chief Justice, U.S. Supreme Court
