President Donald Trump’s reelection campaign has lost its legal bid to nullify President-elect Joe Biden’s 33,596-vote electoral win in Nevada.
The Nevada Supreme Court issued a terse order late Tuesday upholding a state judge’s dismissal of a contest-of-election case that would have either had the Republican president declared the winner in Nevada or blocked the state’s six electoral votes from going to Biden. The nationwide Electoral College tally is next Monday.
“Appellants have not pointed to any unsupported factual findings, and we have identified none,” the justices said.
And more losing:
The Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected Republicans’ last-gasp bid to reverse Pennsylvania’s certification of President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the electoral battleground.
The court without comment refused to call into question the certification process in Pennsylvania. Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf already has certified Biden’s victory over President Donald Trump and the state’s 20 electors are to meet on Dec. 14 to cast their votes for Biden.
The Party of Treason's attempt to engineer a coup through the courts is failing miserably because judges from across the political spectrum have shown themselves to be loyal to the Constitution, not to Trump.
Unlike most Repubican politicians, who have proven, by their actions and, more commonly, their silence to be gutless craven cowards, unwilling to buck their party's petit-fuhrer.
I have littke doubt the the most recent attempt by the Trumpists to use the courts to carry out a coup will fail. Amnd make no mistake, an coup is exactly what the Republicans are trying to pull off.
And now AG’s (all Republican’s) from 17 other States have indicated they support this appeal. I can but hope that the willingness to completely ignore the law and history will come back i a spectacular manner to bite the GOP.
ReplyDeleteIf this isn't brushed back with prejudice it will turn into an accepted tactic that *both* sides do. So far, and to their credit, the judiciary have acted honorably. The tactic of overcoming an electoral loss through the courts has to be discredited, by the courts, so that approach may never be seen as viable
