Perhaps you can ask your dad why all the challenges have been sent to conference and then disposed of.

Are they defective? I mean as how they were written or presented?

Is this a procedural process where the cases that will move forward are simply going through the normal process?

Is there issues with the clerks as Donofrio alleged?

Does your father believe the justices will act on the law or will they instead act because of the social ramifications?

It is hard to find info among the flame wars. I would be interested if your dad could say why he was so certain this would see the light of day. Frankly I am not so certain they will act on the law. It is a powder keg just waiting to go off.

Both Leo and COrt’s cases said the fault lay with the SoS (not doing their job).....There is no law that states that IS their job.SO, the SoS would win the case.

In Conference, they probably talked about who was responsible to VET in conference, it wasn't the SoS of each state., therefore they did not want to waste valuable court time and not hold BO accountable.

The burden to each SoS to vet each candidate for each office would be prohibitive in both time and expense. You will notice that neither cases were completely released but pending. They can be revisited and opinions may be written on them when a final release is given.

Berg's case OTOH places the burden on the candidate, the party, and the FEC. Berg, however, did not have standing until yesterday to present his case. He now has standing (as Keyes and the other CA cases have)

If you read the link above it explains how the SCOTUS is playing chess with BHO and has him in Check Mate.
