"Judge Stephanos Bibas wrote on behalf of the three-judge panel that reviewed the appeal, "Free, fair elections are the lifeblood of our democracy."

This moron doesn't even know what form of government we are.

“This moron doesn’t even know what form of government we are.”

He was a professor of law at the University of Pennsylvania, an Ivy League School. The Ivy League law schools teach the “living Constitution” which allows judges considerable freedom to interpret what the Constitution should mean in the current era instead of what the language of the Constitution says (i.e. original intent). The living Constitution advocates essentially ignore the amendment process which does allow the Constitution to be modified. Of course the amendment process is difficult and requires supermajorities. It also allows the states to be the final ratifiers of amendments not Congress.

It is interesting the Constitution gives the courts no role in amending the Constitution. The Supreme Court, and the lower federal courts, have taken that power on themselves, with the acquiescence of the legislative and executive branches as well as the states.
