I try to give an educated opinion. However, predicting what judges will do is difficult. They frequently do dumb things. How any Republican judge can deny the predicted fraud resulting from mass mail in this election is beyond my comprehension. If the Dem political machines in the big cities can just stuff the ballot boxes as they have, Republicans could never win another statewide election there, as well as a national election. The very foundation of the republic is at state: one person, one vote.

Roberts’ recent vote contributed in no small way to the mess we’re in. If the Supremes fail to clean it up it will be tantamount to condoning widespread fraud, depriving equal protection, and tolerating a lack of transparency. This, of course, would lead to a lack of confidence in the legitimacy of our governing institutions and the severe erosion of faith in the republic itself.
The stakes couldn’t be higher.
ACB is in a very difficult situation and might not be the savior we are hoping she will be. What in your estimation are the odds that the Supremes will take steps to restore confidence in our voting systems? Will they recognize the implications for the country and do the right thing, or will they look to sidestep the tough decisions thereby perpetuating the problems?
