The Supreme Court on Monday declined the Republican National Committee’s request to lift a three-decade-old court order that limits the national GOP’s ability to challenge voters’ eligibility at the polls.

We can revisit this after Trump appointees are ensconced, however this decree does not stop Congress/Senate from passing laws and President Trump from signing them.

Expires December 1st 2017 giving the Sessions Justice department enough time to gather evidence of systematic voter fraud by the Democratic party such as busing voters over state lines, registering and voting the dead and enrolling non-citizens and felons. Justice department should pursue a consent decree from the Democrat party to stop such practices. There is ample evidence for such a suit. ( See Harrisonburg, VA)

“In deciding the case, which stems from a 2008 lawsuit brought by the DNC, the district court clarified ballot security efforts as “any program aimed at combating voter fraud by preventing potential voters from registering to vote or casting a ballot,” and upheld the consent decree while adding a Dec. 1, 2017, expiration date.

The RNC appealed, saying that its decades-long compliance and good faith should justify ending the consent decree.”

So it ends next year?
