The Supreme Court on Tuesday denied a last-minute attempt by President Trump's allies to overturn the election results in Pennsylvania.
The court's brief order provided no reasoning, nor did it note any dissenting votes. It was the first request to delay or overturn the results of the presidential election to reach the court.
The U.S. Supreme Court rarely intervenes in a decision of a state supreme court interpreting its own constitution and laws. But the plaintiffs charged that the system raised federal issues. Although acknowledging that it is up to states to develop election procedures, the claim was that the federal Constitution was violated if the Pennsylvania legislature expanded the mail-in procedure without proper authority from the state constitution.

This doesn't bode well for the lawsuit that Texas just filed.

Exactly. If they dismissed a case covering the same things, no real reason to think they won't dismiss Texas.

They can't dismiss Texas! This is a States Rights Case involving a Constitutional issue.

Oh, really? Then what does this suggest?
QuoteAriz. Supreme Court Agrees To Review Voter Fraud Case
In a victory for Arizona's GOP, the state's Supreme Court has decided to take on an expedited appeals case over voter fraud. On Monday, the state Supreme Court said it will review the appeal, but will not be hearing oral arguments.
The suit was filed by Arizona GOP chair Kelli Ward who called to overturn the state's election results and cited evidence of duplicated ballots. She had filed the initial suit last week, but it was dismissed by a Maricopa County superior court judge who, in part, cited a filing deadline technicality.
While the Supreme Court decision is a decisive victory for the Trump campaign, Ward was quick to point out that the campaign was employing a number of strategies in order to bring the truth to Arizona.
The high court ordered both sides to file written briefs for the appeal by next week.

QuoteWell, it was put on the docket just 12 hours after it was filed, and so it will be heard.
And on Tuesday evening, the Supreme Court ordered the defending states to file their answers by Thursday at 3 PM eastern time.
So this is really happening.
The Supreme Court will determine the fate of the 2020 election after all.
So the question will come down to do we want a republic or not. Are we a nation of laws?
QuoteBut if there are at least five justices that are willing to follow the Constitution no matter what the consequences are, we may soon see the most shocking decision in the entire history of the U.S. Supreme Court.
We have a major problem with the liberal corruption that is trying to ruin our republic, we need to fix this. The Supreme Court can, they know exactly what is at stake.

But they didnt dismiss it on the merits, only because they dont need two suits with the same stuff in them.

Do you have any proof that 51 cases have been filed and rejected?

The SCOTUS is not going to listen to 20 different lawsuits! they will pick the ones they feel have the best standing and combine them! If they take the Texas lawsuit ( that now has 8 states and growing) I would look for them to also take 1 or 2 of the fraud suits too! the reason is to show the damage that Texas is claiming and hear them all at once! There is no (safe harbor) date where the SCOTUS is concerned! They can reverse Biden any day up to the 20th of January when he is sworn in!
I believe the SCOTUS will weigh in before this is over and the Texas case has got to interest them because it is a pure constitutional issue! The Penn. case in it's self could not effect the out come of the election. It is still on their docket The only thing they turned down was a stay on the electorates! It to can be argued with the Texas case!
