    Biden will probably mandate Dominion as the Federal standard because they ‘work so well’!

    No. You are a slow learner and I have neither the time nor the patience. Clue: it’s peculiar to the parties to an action. Are you confusing it with precedent?

    Your arrogance is matched only by your lack of manners.

    No, Cal, you are the one who is confused here.

    For someone who claims to be a lawyer and belittles others (almost as a default) you are incredibly slow to grasp what this is about.

    In order to succeed a claimant needs to have standing (locus standi as you would have said, just to show off). Texas failed as it did not have an interest in how the other states conduct their elections. You have suggested that others may somehow try to take up the mantle.

    The only parties who might have an interest are:

    1 Trump. He cannot show that he was adversely affected by the process as, had it been different, the voters who voted for Biden could have done so in other ways. And he’s too late now, anyway.

    2 Voters in the four states. But again they cannot show that they have been adversely affected by the process as, had it been different, the voters who voted for Biden could have done so in other ways. And they are too late now, anyway.

    3 The legislature in each of the four states. But it is the legislature which appoints the executive (state government), and the state government which has (arguably) failed in its administration of the process. The legislature can challenge and question what on earth the state government has done, but it cannot disenfranchise the voters. It may decide to overrule the decision of the electorate, with heaven knows what constitutional consequences, but that almost certainly would result in the mother of all legal challenges and potentially criminal charges.

    4 The state government itself. But the state government is estopped (I would have expected any half decent lawyer to know the word Cal) as against the electors from denying the validity of the election process which it itself defined and administered.

    So it’s over.

    As it's that time of year most of the supermarkets now have those tubs of cheesey biscuits from Jacobs shaped like trees, hilariously called Treeselets. Those are really nice.

    We don't get a vote, not being American citizens, but that doesn't mean we don't have a right to an opinion and free speech. Isn't that something the US adamantly stands for? Feel free to express your views on any element of our own shambolic politics.

    No, that's true. Though you might get one of you start a thread about how much better BMWs are than Triumphs. :D

    It's nothing compared to what pushed people to leave months ago.

    No one speaks about "collecting scalps", and give some snowflakes here and there, or systematically name people about their supposed politic side on each occasion. Seriously.

    I have and let's say we just disagree about the compare.

    I’m not “Ridin With Biden” but I’m definitely glad we’re done with “Twitter From The Shitter”
