this thread would be better if people just said what they think the possible outcomes could be if the court rules in either direction.
responding to one another seems to yield nothing

Possible outcomes include state legislatures choosing electors for the candidate who lost that state's vote, and the people of the state (i.e. the voters) having zero recourse.

Funny how you're all fans of the Electoral College now

Now read the case and tell us what you actually think, in your own words

You are so fucking Deaf dude. We are not fans of the EC. Just the opposite. Local Electors could not change an election if it was one person one vote.

Authoritarian now being the unmitigated gall to question the orthodox leftist collective.

Are you going to even try to answer Ifall's question, or just continue with the old 'last grape in the fruit bowl' routine?
BS as always Lance.

The narrowest case concerns gerrymandering, which this case would essentially green light. Once implemented, ISL theory could be extended to fully gerrymandered state legislatures completely and without any checks and balances controlling state elections, up to and including the selection of electors.

And I am not a fan of the Electoral College, without which we would never have been subjected to President Trump.

Is there any branch of any state government that's not bound by the state's own constitution or the courts?
