My one great fear, with the current election results

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by JudyM (a host of the The DU Lounge forum).

Is that the ideologues on the Supreme Court, seeing the possible fading of ReThug power, will be energized to decide that state legislatures can overturn any election they damn well please. They are more interested in partisan power than rendering legal decisions that actually comply with the Constitutional structure of our country.

1. Which is why maintaining the Senate control is critical, because of judicial appointments

[Otto_Harper]

2. Without question, but the "Justices" currently seated in the SC

are there, and are poised to act on a case which can explode our Democracy as we have known it.

4. I know

3. If they were smart, they would realize that their terrible decisions are a key reason

for the election results.

5. I'm not sure that the two concepts, "Smart" and "Republican" are capable of coexistence. (NT)

6. Exactly! Nt

7. But it hasn't happened in actuality.

Do the Pachyderms really want Kamala Harris deciding if overturned results should themselves be overturned? I say, do not sign off until GOP outlaws their own absurd proposals and SC approves it.

8. It's time to indict Thomas, add a few supreme justices to equal the districts

Are pass democratic legislation that gives all citizens an equal right to vote, end gerrymandering, money in politics, and end the Electoral College.

9. I'm with you, but

kinda hard to do given the current congressional makeup.

10. Locking
