A new Supreme Court case could potentially hand Arizona to Donald Trump. #GOPElectionFraud

@DemocracyMattersALot A democracy with a Supreme Court that's complicit in election fraud?? America, America, what have you become? What's happened to the Land of the Free where I happily lived only a quarter of a century ago?
@hans
This would not be so much of a problem if the judges were not extremely partisan, beholden and corrupt.
@DemocracyMattersALot
@Eetschrijver @DemocracyMattersALot SCOTUS is utterly corrupt. They are aiding a felon/rapist/conman and protecting the GOP criminal cabal. They themselves are guilty of bribery and collusion.
@DemocracyMattersALot
"Republicans claim that several thousand Arizona voters should be allowed to vote only in congressional elections, and that they are barred from voting in state and local elections or voting for the president."
@msbellows @DemocracyMattersALot
WTactualF!!???!?!?!
@samiamsam @DemocracyMattersALot It's amazeballs.
@DemocracyMattersALot Here's why Arizona Republicans think it's fine to pass a law allowing certain voters (*coughLatinocough*) to vote for Congress but not for President:
Constitution, Art. I, Sec. 4, Cl. 1 (the Elections Clause):
"The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations...."
@msbellows @DemocracyMattersALot It doesn’t work that way..
@damkina @DemocracyMattersALot I agree, except maybe it might work that way. https://c.im/@msbellows/112991625386123991
@DemocracyMattersALot The only way for t-rump to win is cheating, with help from SCOTUS.
@DemocracyMattersALot
Nice to finally see this in print:
> The Court’s Republican supermajority does not always follow the law, especially when the law cuts against the Republican Party’s preferred outcome.
@DemocracyMattersALot the only way they win is by cheating. The high road is not working!
