is definitively disqualifying. They are going at it as though voting is a privilege, and we must prove our right to vote.

Besides that, the states aren't required to count the votes until December, and the EC to send their results until January. All of this is by law, not the Constitution, and does not show any need to rush the vote. And Bush v. Gore was never, iirc, meant to be a precedent of any kind.

So, there seems to be absolutely no right, rhyme, nor reason for the SC to get involved in this election at all.

But they will, which makes the Court political, not judicial.
