The U.S. Supreme Court conference of December 13, 2019, will consider whether to hear De La Fuente v Padilla, and Chiafalo v State. The De La Fuente lawsuit, 19-524, challenges the California independent presidential petition requirement of almost 200,000 signatures to be collected in 105 days. The Chiafalo lawsuit, 19-465, is whether the Constitution permits the state to fine presidential electors $1,000 if they vote for someone other than the candidate who got the most popular votes in that state.
The Court won’t release information about its decisions until Monday, December 16, at the earliest.
