The plan was to get one or more of these challenges to the Supreme Court where, with Barrett on board, he'd have the votes to turn a close race.

But they underestimated the turnout and the number of states Biden would win - and, very important, how effective voting and civil rights groups would be in educating voters about how to vote so that their votes would be counted. And the one case that did make it to the Court involved too few ballots to make any difference.
