Texas Asks U.S. Supreme Court to Invalidate Vote Returns of Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin

On December 7, the state of Texas asked the U.S. Supreme Court to invalidate the election returns for president from Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Here is the filing in Texas v Pennsylvania, 22 O 155. The “O” stands for “original jurisdiction”, which is used when a state asks the U.S. Supreme Court to hear a case that had not been heard in any lower court. On December 8, the U.S. Supreme Court asked the four states to respond by December 10.

  1. Maybe he Romans had the right idea. Replace the President with two Consuls, one Democrat and one Republican.

  2. NOT sure if the “22” belongs with SCOTUS ORIGINAL JURISDICTION cases 3-2-para 2 ???

    might be “20” as with other 2020 term stuff ???

  3. Is there a “Cliff’s Notes” version of this? Just what is being alleged? What evidence is being offered?

  4. Yawn. What an amateur attempt to troll.

    If Scotland doesn’t want Orange Crushed, and Italy won’t take him, what to we do with the guy? I’m all for starting a Keep the Peace PAC, a fraternal organization with similar goals to the ASPCA…placing redundant Washington politicians in good homes. Ad space in Latin American papers of record will of course be key.

    Work Wanted: Experienced charismatic demagogue dictator. Recently laid off from COVID. Seek position with uneducated populous who desire martial law. Serious inquiries only. Tweet Donald.

  5. Cliff’s Notes:

    They seek, under their own definitions of ‘law,’ to “enjoin the use of ‘unlawful’ election results without review” in four other states.

    Rumor also has it that Trump-pet-istas have asked Santa for a Central American banana plantation with sign over the ranch entrance that says: Republican Fruit Company.

  6. Cliff’s Notes:

    Texas also will move for interim relief in the form of a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, stay, and administrative stay to enjoin Defendant States from certifying their presidential electors or having them vote in the electoral college.

    I said yesterday, fine. Disfranchise all four states, just like the Texas stud (who is under indictment they say for securities fraud) AG Paxton has asked…that means four states don’t get counted because they cannot be appointed. 12th Amendment still applies, because quorum (two thirds of the States) is met.

    Therefore (hate to break it to the gotta have 270 EC votes crowd), the EC no longer would contain 538 votes…it would be reduced by the un-appointed 62. For the math challenged that would be 476, or a majority of 239. Biden (then would have 244 EC votes), he would keep the majority, win the election, and Trump would still lose. Texas would get what they asked for. So, almost a win-win-win.

    The only problem outstanding is what to do with Orange Crushed. So, please donate. There’s a lot of newspapers in Latin America, and uneducated people seeking dictators.

  7. Abortionist Floyd Whitley, supposedly a member of the Constitution Party, fantasizes about deporting the President who: secured the border, drew down soldiers abroad, did not start any new wars, fostered peace in the Middle East and North Korea, ended NAFTA and TPP, brought economic prosperity, and nominated three strict constructionist justices to the Supreme Court. And Whitley wants to replace this President with someone who supports open borders, nation building, “free” trade agreements, economic stagnation, and packing the Court with liberal activists.

    Hmmm. That’s interesting.

  8. how about 25 States vs 25 States ???

    END of ***United*** States of America ??? –

    see olde 4 July 1776 DOI- mere 13 States plus VT.
    —-
    How many new regimes by blown up olde regimes – due to internal ROT ???

  9. Floyd is right. Even if you trash every electoral vote from PA, GA, MI, and WI, and award them to NO ONE, Biden STILL has a majority of the remaining electoral votes.

  10. The only way this suit makes any sense is if the Republican electors from those 4 states cast competing votes, and send them up to Congress. BUT, only WI has failed to certify the election by December 8, the legally required date for certification. SO, Congress can only choose to accept the Republican votes from Wisconsin in place of the Democratic votes, AND the vote must be by each Chamber. The Democrats in the House certainly won’t do that, and it’s also unlikely that enough Republicans in the Senate would vote to do that.

  11. So, if the Supremes think about the numbers alone, they should realize that this case is moot.

  12. 1876:

    “The results of the election remain among the most disputed ever. Although it is not disputed that Tilden outpolled Hayes in the popular vote, after a first count of votes, Tilden had won 184 electoral votes to Hayes’s 165, with 20 votes from four states unresolved: in Florida, Louisiana, and South Carolina, each party reported its candidate had won the state, while in Oregon, one elector was replaced after being declared illegal for being an “elected or appointed official”. The question of who should have been awarded these electoral votes is the source of the continued controversy.”

  13. “So, if the Supremes think about the numbers alone, they should realize that this case is moot.”

    I don’t think Diana Ross has anything to do with this.

  14. Where’s the “proof” that 270 is a hard count (static) number for gaining a presumptive EC majority?

    I already explained it. If you can’t keep up with basic math, and you don’t understand a quorum, then we’re wasting our time here.

  15. Who said the electors for WI, MI, PA, and GA would not be counted? Why won’t they be counted as “present” votes?

  16. @Factchecker: I would make a distinction between 2020 and 1876. The Hayes election had states with disputed majorities. In 2020, Texas is asking to enjoin four states from “having them vote in the electoral college”.

    Again, fine…so long as the State of Texas and its officer bear the brunt of the backlash for their demands.

    I might recommend that Texas go into an immediate emergency legislative session to drum up at least $40 billion to be held in escrow to partly offset the first wave of lawsuits bearing down on it from the 20+ millions voters in these disfranchised states…brought as qualified immunities under 11th Amendment, I suppose. But hey, I quibble.

  17. Pretty soon, you will will hear the Supremes sing; “Stop, in the name of love!”

  18. “Why won’t they be counted as “present” votes?”

    Because they would lack appointment, having been enjoined from participating (per Texas’ request). Please note, if as Texas alleges the elections in these four states were “unconstitutional” that necessarily includes down ballots…in short, these four states would also have NO US Representatives on January 6th. Their seats would be vacant until an election could fill them…too late for taking up the EC nomination. So, they’re out…all the way out.

    Whether they also might lack one of their US Senators, depends upon the specific election class per state that YOU boys want to disfranchise.

    Anyhow, the EC would go on under statutory code, albeit without the enjoined four states (per Texas’ request.) The “abbreviated” EC would still be legitimate, meeting the constitutional requirements of quorum. Biden is elected, Trump goes home to Mordor (wherever that is), Precious is incinerated in the fires of Mount Doom, and the Lidless Eye of Donald that once sought to impose his Neo-Royalty family of Orcs via rampant nepotism would be toppled…and the people would move on.

  19. 18 states and TRUMP are now on board with this lawsuit, ted Cruz will argue before the court and TRUMP has said this is the big one. The court has asked the offending four states to offer their plea quickly before sentencing is passed. TRUMP wins. TRUMP stays.

  20. Is “Libertarians for Trump” Paul trolling, or is Paul really out in the boonies somewhere with no, or limited, internet access, and has gone “cold turkey” on politics?

  21. Meanwhile the Hunter Biden scandal is finally being prosecuted. Will Hunter roll on his daddy?

  22. Temperature’s rising
    Fever is high
    Can’t see no future
    Can’t see no sky
    My feet are so heavy
    So is my head
    I wish I was a baby
    I wish I was dead

    Cold turkey has got me on the run

    My body is aching
    Goose-pimple bone
    Can’t see no body
    Leave me alone
    My eyes are wide open
    Can’t get to sleep
    One thing I’m sure of
    I’m in at the deep freeze

    Cold turkey has got me on the run

    Thirty-six hours
    Rolling in pain
    Praying to someone
    Free me again
    Oh, I’ll be a good boy
    Please make me well
    I promise you anything
    Get me out of this hell

    Cold turkey has got me on the run

  23. Listen up Whitless Floyd Whitley,

    Did you even read the lawsuit?

    Texas is asking the Supreme Court to invalidate the electors in GA, PA, MI, and WI, and then have the Republican-run state legislatures appoint new electors. Do you understand what that means?

  24. Nice tribute to John Lennon. It was such a shock to hear about Lennons’ murder. Hard to believe it’s been 40 years.

  25. In response to [Fill in the Blank], comments attributed to Dick Morris regarding the fascist Texas suit that is designed to convince the Supreme Court to permit its partisans to stuff the ballot boxes in four other states:

    “It also puts the court squarely on notice that the case is about unequal treatment of the laws, that a voter in Texas had one set of rules and a voter in Pennsylvania had another set.”

    So, Texas bottom line, is now advocating for the federal take over of elections in Texas and in all other states, despite its hypocritical mouthing about states rights.

    Even though Morris continues: “While the state has the right to set those rules, they don’t have the right to basically devalue the Texans’ vote,” that is merely lip service. (Texans do a lot of that, I find.)

    Texas bottom line is calling for the right to intrude into the laws and practices in other states. It is alleging that it has the right to determine by itself whether an election in some other states “devalues” Texas. And apparently, should the Texas AG (who is as we speak apparently indicted on federal securities fraud), deem another state’s elections “devalue” an election in Texas, then Texas gets to dictate its remedy upon another state.

    So, Texas is hypocritical regarding states rights….like I said, they’re lip service. Besides, the states have already certified their own elections.

  26. I recite this, also in response to [Fill in the Blank], directly from the filing:

    “Texas also will move for interim relief in the form of a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, stay, and administrative stay to enjoin Defendant States from certifying their presidential electors or having them vote in the electoral college.”

    I found in reading the thing that in several places Texas requests preventing these four states from having a vote in the electoral college. In others words they ask the Court to disfranchise +20 million voters in what are separate sovereign states.

    Lastly, with the Texas AG’s bald faced hypocrisies, he attempts to overturn the intent of a just decided case this summer [CHIAFALO ET AL. v. WASHINGTON, No 19-465]. Our respective states have a right to sanction faithless electors. These electors are now certified. And in effect, Texas seeks to accomplish the faithlessness that the Chiafalo decision intends to ban…by replacing electors in these other states (wholly without standing) with partisans that Texas claims are “better”.

    Chiafalo is clear. States have full rights over their own elections. Texas has no standing replace any elector in GA, PA, MI or WI elections which have already been certified by these states.

  27. When you write that much it decreases the chances it will be read. Please be pithy.

  28. more inter-state war stuff –

    AZ v CA Orig no 150

    CA trying to impose CA communism on other States.

  29. The Hunter Biden red china tax scandal is the December (non)surprise that will swing the election even more decisively for TRUMP. By the time congress votes next month the scandal ridden red Chinese agents of the Biden family will have zero electoral votes.

  30. It’s not just Texas. It’s at least 18 states and TRUMP. There is no way TRUMP won’t win this case. Take it to the bank.

  31. Interesting how some many ” different” people pop up posting here, all saying similar things. It is likely one person, or a group of people, trolling.

  32. So we’ve got “Willie.” “Ray,” Jebidiah,” and who else? Probably all the same person or with the same group of people.

  33. How many fake names used by the BAN Trump resident troll MORON since it infected BAN some months ago ???

    100-200, more ???

  34. This is it. Curtains for the communist coup. This time TRUMP should punish the coup plotters much more harshly than after they tried to illegally overthrow HIM with the Russia hoax and the impeachment hoax. Time to bring down the hammer, crown TRUMP emperor and bring in the military tribunals to try traitors.

  35. Day of the rope is near. TRUMP is our leader. Time to clean the gutters and drain the swamp once and for all. Amen.

  36. Not that I don’t enjoy all this claptrap (well, okay… I don’t) but what actual evidence is being presented that vote fraud has taken place?

  37. Whistler- that’s an allegation but what is the evidence to support it? That’s what the court needs.

  38. There is the Atlanta video of the vote fraud taking place. There are affidavits from those who witnessed the fraud first hand in all the four states. There are statistical studies showing fraud in the four states. Evidence of dead voters. Evidence of fake voters. Evidence of illegals voting. Evidence of underage people voting. Evidence of people voting who live in other states.

  39. If dead people voted, then there would be names of said dead people. So far no names have EVER been produced in court.

    Trumps lawyers say witnesses “believed” or “suspected” fraud occurred. Not once did they say that a specifically named dead person voted at a specific precinct.

    That is why more than 50 lawsuits have been thrown out of court.

  40. Fact Checker: All of your so called evidence and affidavits from witnesses have been examined in courts throughout the United States and found to be baloney.

    If any of those allegations were true then the Republican judges who examined them would have ruled in Trumps favor instead od dismissing for lack of evidence.

    Saying dead people and illegals voted does not make it real. You have repeated allegations that have never been backed up with evidence that has ever stood up in court.

  41. 18 states, over 100 members of congress AND THE PRESIDENT are parties to this suit being argued by Ted Cruz in front of a 6 to 3 Republican court. Face it, TRUMP wins this one and stays in office. Even if it has to go to January which now it won’t.
    26 to 24 state delegations in us house
    Senate MAJORITY
    Pence presiding
    Face it TRUMP WINS, TRUMP STAYS.

  42. “All of your so called evidence and affidavits from witnesses have been examined in courts throughout the United States and found to be baloney.”

    You’re a liar.

  43. Fact Checker: Why haven’t the Republican judges who have examined the voter fraud cases ruled in the Presidents’ favor instead of dismissing the cases?

  44. Could be trolling the shitlibs setting them up to think that they won til the last possible moment. Then when the supreme court brings down the hammer their shock and outrage will be way past 11. The harder they chimp out the more brutally they get crushed and the more fun for us enjoying their pain.

  45. I agree though, could be corruption. Another reason civilian courts need to be replaced with military tribunals, medieval dungeons and torture and large scale summary executions of leftists.

  46. Corruption? One or two isolated cases maybe. But not every judge across the several states.

  47. Are you kidding? Corruption is rampant. The swamp is both deep and wide. If it was not for corruption being so prevalent everywhere there would not be so much need for military tribunals and MARTIAL LAW.

  48. Casual Observer, you must not having been paying much attention. Do a search online about all of the evidence of vote fraud from this past election. It is not hard to find.

  49. Andy: If all this fraud actually happened, then why has more than 50 voter fraud lawsuits been dismissed by the courts? The only case that President Trump won was to allow people to stand a few feet closer to watch votes being counted. Every judge who has considered the evidence by President Trump’s lawyers has dismissed each and every case. That includes Republican judges and Federal judges appointed by President Trump.

  50. LOL @ stock character pretending he hasn’t received several likely plausible answers already.

  51. No masks no vaccines: I am not pretending that I haven’t received several plausible answers. I am rejecting the implausible absurdities that Trump supporters desperately cling to.

  52. The only absurdities are the ideas that Biden somehow legitimately won, or that he will be allowed to get away with it and take office. Both totally absurd.

  53. Stock character admitted serving Soros and Satan who are ultimately behind this fraud so it is highly likely.

  54. Sorry folks been busy spreading gift of red China virus as widely as possible. Will try to check in with y’all Google slaves before congress elects TRUMP 6 Jan
