You're exactly right. The legislature can take back that power and pick their own electors right now but they like everyone else is afraid.HawkBowler 2.0 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 11, 2020 3:35 pmIn case you hadn't guessed, I'm not a constitutional law expert. This is confusing for me in that if the state legislatures have the power to assign electors, and they're all controlled by Republicans in these battleground states, why does SCOTUS need to decide? The state legislatures should over rule the governors and election officials who illegally changed the election rules.The goal of the lawsuit isn't to have the SCOTUS decide - it's for them to kick the delegation of electorates to the legislature of those four states - all of whom are Republican dominated. If there is any indication of any election fraud - there is an article in the Constitution that gives the states the right and duty to dismiss the vote count and decide whom to give the electorates to.
They want SCOTUS to give them that "permission" although they already possess it. Ridiculous!
Nothing will stop what is coming.
