    Election laws in the defendant states have disenfranchised voters in Texas and other states, so yes they can sue and it's a federal question.

    Nope it is not. Texas has no standing to sue. The case is frivolous with no evidence— the Supreme Court will not consider it.

    That is a complete and utter lie. You have zero credibility.

    You really should go purchase some tin foil for your hats.

    Over 50 of these "election fraud" suits have been kicked out of court for having no evidence. Some with scathing commentary from the judges.

    The Texas complaint has the same basis as the Kelly complaint, allegedly the state(s) inappropriately used mail in ballots, etc.

    Bingo.

    Injunctive relief not needed the case will be heard in time for the States to act accordingly.

    The remedy is not as radical and that's one of the differences. SCOTUS did not rule on the merits of the Kelly/PA case by the way. Rather, it just decided not to provide injuctive relief at this time. It does not mean that that case is dead, it could be taken up later. What this means is that Kelly/PA will perhaps have no bearing on the 2020 election, but could have effect on future elections if SCOTUS takes up at a later time.

    That could very well have played into their decision to not provide relief right now. The fact that the other case with different remedy was on the way. Excellent point!!

    By the way, just because the briefs from the defendant states are on the docket for Thurs at 3 PM, doesn't mean that SCOTUS will take up this case right now either. Let's let this play out.

    This is actually not a bad analysis. I don’t agree with it because when determining to grant injunctive relief the court considers the plaintiff’s likelihood of prevailing in the complaint. Yes, you are correct in that Kelly may still file a writ.
