Still Free

Yeah, Mr. Smiley. Made it through the entire Trump presidency without being enslaved. Imagine that.

Denied

 In my original Texas suit piece I said:

" I can see the court asking how PA law disenfranchised Texas voters. PA voters, maybe, but that would go to standing."

And that is how it ended for them. If you read SCOTUS decisions you always[?] see a part that discusses whether the party has standing and whether the court has jurisdiction and THEN the case.  Even if the case is solid with evidence, if the party has no standing, then the case doesn't proceed.

As I've said for years; when you're dealing with legal issues, you have to put aside your own prejudices and look at how the process works. Understanding the process means that you'll be prepared for or at least understand likely outcomes that don't fit your wishes.
