Supreme Court Finally Ready Hear Argument that Only Legislatures Have Right to Update Election Law – Not Leftist Judges or Executive Branch

The US Supreme Court agreed in June to hear the Moore vs. Harper case related to the subject referred to as the independent state legislature theory.
This case will have huge consequences.

Breitbart reported:

The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday agreed to hear a case next term to potentially bolster the elections power of state legislatures.

The high court announced it would take up the case, known as Moore vs. Harper, brought by North Carolina’s Republican state House speaker who has challenged the state Supreme Court’s decision to dismiss the legislature’s congressional maps that would have given the party an advantage through partisan gerrymandering.

The North Carolina Supreme Court in February ruled that the legislative maps, which gave Republicans as many as 11 safe districts compared to just three for Democrats, violated the state’s constitution in a 4-3 decision.

In March, the U.S. high court turned back efforts by Republicans to nullify new congressional maps approved by state court for this year’s midterm elections.

The left is freaking out about this case, perhaps because it is relevant to the corrupt actions taken by states before the 2020 Election.  In Georgia for example, the state’s corrupt GOP Secretary of State signed an agreement with Hillary Clinton’s attorney, Marc Elias, that provided for drop boxes in the state.  Only the legislature has the ability to change laws related to elections, per the independent state legislature theory.

Yes.  The majority of the cheating in 2020 was ordered by courts.

Right. Unless the legislature ceded that right by way of law - as in the case of emergency situations.

The Supreme Court's decision on this won't affect the 2022 elections (of course), but... it WILL have a significant impact on what happens in 2024.

Let's hope they decide "for the Legislatures"...

It's spelled out pretty plainly in the Constitution. Let's hope they go by that.

Because I want them to practice for any new (or retread) gun laws that come down the pipe.
