I think that federal judges have to be taken down about twelve notches - interfering in the internal affairs of a state without incredible evidence of suppression of people's right to vote strikes me as the ultimate in contempt.

I suspect it's a provable fact that all people become Democrats upon their death and reliably vote for the Democratz.
