Supreme Court to Consider 2020 Election Challenge Lawsuits in February Conference

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday scheduled several high-profile contest-of-election lawsuits, including ones brought by attorneys Sidney Powell and Lin Wood, and the Trump campaign, for consideration at its Feb. 19 conference.

 

According to a case listing, the lawsuits include Sidney Powell’s Michigan case (20-815), the Trump campaign’s Pennsylvania lawsuit (20-845) and Wisconsin lawsuit (20-882), the Pennsylvania lawsuit brought by Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.) (20-810), and Lin Wood’s Georgia case (20-799).

 

All cases allege some form of unlawful election-related conduct affecting the result of the election, including expansion of mail-in balloting by elections officials changing rules in contravention of state election laws, lack of adequate security measures around mail ballots, issues with machine vote tabulation, and denial of meaningful access to poll watchers.

 

The Supreme Court declined to grant relief or fast-track the cases as requested in respective petitions filed ahead of the Jan. 20 inauguration of President Joe Biden.

 

Powell’s Michigan petition (pdf) sought “emergency declaratory relief avowing that the presidential election results certified by Michigan officials were unconstitutional and otherwise contrary to law, together with injunctive relief de-certifying those results.”

 

Wood’s Georgia petition (pdf) asked the Supreme Court to “enter an emergency order instructing Respondents to de-certify the results of the General Election for the Office of the President.”

 

The Kelly petition (pdf) asked the court for an injunction “that prohibits the Executive-Respondents from taking official action to tabulate, compute, canvass, certify, or otherwise finalize the results of the Election.”

 

The Trump campaign suits similarly called for emergency injunctive relief in the form of expedited hearings and blocking certification of the electoral college votes for Biden.

 

Some of the lawyers in the cases said that seeing the challenges through is important as they could have an impact on long-term election fairness.

 

“Our legal issue remains important in need of the court’s review,” attorney John Eastman told the Washington Examiner, referring to Pennsylvania’s conduct during the 2020 election.

 

Greg Teufel, Kelly’s lawyer, told the Washington Examiner that the congressman has no intention of dropping the suit.

 

The Supreme Court has kept its distance from Trump’s election challenges. In December, it rejected a lawsuit filed by the Republican attorney general of Texas and backed by Trump seeking to decertify the election results in four states.

 

If, at the Feb. 19 conference, the Supreme Court decides to take up any of the election lawsuits, they most likely won’t be heard until October.

 

In a sweeping report on the integrity of the 2020 election, Trump adviser Peter Navarro concluded that the allegations of irregularities surrounding the vote in key battleground states were serious enough to warrant an urgent probe and substantial enough to potentially overturn the results.

 

“If these election irregularities are not fully investigated prior to Inauguration Day and thereby effectively allowed to stand, this nation runs the very real risk of never being able to have a fair presidential election again,” Navarro warned in his report.

SCCJ: All this evidence is conspiracy hoaxes. Next case.

 

That is how it plays out. 

Afraid to do their jobs protecting the Constitution and the American people.

At least there is a shot at something happening, this and Mike Lindell's video warrents at least some kind of audit. Don't give up, it has to get bad before it gets better.

Thanks Markinsa, you sure can find the news!

If POTUS Trump doesn't have a plant to Re Take the WH on March 4th and become the 19th President I am afraid the damage to America will already be beyond repair and America and the American Dream will be forever lost Forever. The Left has even came out and printing how they planned this Election Fraud to get Trump out of Office.....Like they could care less....They Won, Now STFU or we will send you to camps.

 

The clock in running down to a time when people are going to have to Bow or take a Stand, take up Arms and Fight for this Country Ounce again.....Choose Wisely and study history and what happened to the Jews starting in 1940.......It is happening again but most don't have a clue.

At whatever point a court determines the election was corrupted for any number of reasons, the military would have no other option than to move in to handle new elections....a do over....

 

The military acting on a court decision makes alot of sense....
