So her argument is that the constitution is unconstitutional?

Probably someone who has read that Bush v. Gore was partially decided on equal protection while not reading the full decision where it was made clear the equal protection scope was very limited.

How does she have standing? How does she have an individualized injury separate from the general political question regarding the existence of the electoral college. What relief can a court grant her to redress her injury.

The popular vote in Alaska was strongly for trump. So I guess her feelings are far more important than everyone else in Alaska.

Yep. And I’m pretty the Constitution is NOT unconstitutional, though I have to admit I’m not a “Constitutional law professor” like obama, and might not fully understand the finer points of such things.

Only for her. And only when she doesn't get her way. And only when she can find a jackass lawyer who will gladly fleece her to represent his/her fellow jackass in a federal court.

“scratching my head” I think that’s what she just said. I don’t know where these people come from or what drives their hatred. I am perplexed why the CIA would like to the Congressional Intelligence committee about the socalled “Intel implicating Putin”. Its like the whole Democrat party has lost their minds

That seems about right. I wonder if she hired a lawyer. I hope he racks up a large bill. LOL!

If we were to get a couple of Clinton appointed Justices that could well be a Decision handed down. More likely the Constitution would be taken apart piece by piece, starting with ruling the 2Amd to be either unconstitutional or to mean the opposite of tits wording. There is a sort of precedent at the state level. Colorado a few years ago ruled an article of the State Constitution to be un(state)constitutional and the ruling was accepted by just about everybody as legitimate.
