The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit on Saturday upheld a lower court’s decision to dismiss a suit filed by Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) and a group of Arizona Trump supporters. Gohmert and his allies had hoped to give Vice-President Mike Pence the ability to reject the Electoral College results when he oversees a Congressional session on Wednesday. The plaintiffs were suing Pence — a fact even his attorneys conceded was odd. “The Vice President—the only defendant in this case—is ironically the very person whose power they seek to promote,” wrote a Department of Justice attorney representing Pence, according to a report in The Hill. “A suit to establish that the Vice President has discretion over the count, filed against the Vice President, is a walking legal contradiction.” Later Saturday, Pence Chief of Staff Marc Short told The Hill that the vice president “shares the concerns of millions of Americans about voter fraud and irregularities. “The vice president welcomes the efforts of members of the House and Senate to use the authority they have under the law to raise objections and bring forward evidence before the Congress and the American people on January 6th,” the statement added. Pence’s role on Jan. 6 is largely ceremonial, The Hill noted. The district judge who tossed the case Friday had found that Gohmert and the other plaintiffs could not prove they were harmed by Pence’s role. The three-judge Appeals Court panel — made up of two Ronald Reagan-appointed Republicans and another appointed by Trump — largely agreed.
