The Supreme Court has declined to reinstate a court-ordered extension of the deadline for the receipt of absentee ballots in Wisconsin, siding with Republicans in a pitched battle over election procedures amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic

.

The justices split, 5-3, along ideological lines, with all the court’s Republican appointees voting to reject the six-day extension a U.S. District Court judge issued last month in the key presidential swing state. The high court brushed aside complaints from Democrats and civil rights groups that enforcing the usual deadline of Election Day could leave thousands of ballots uncounted due to postal service changes and the massive number of voters seeking to vote by mail instead of in person.

And I suppose the voting machines will be rigged for Trump.

Well you win some lose some because Pennsylvania got three extra days for votes to be counted. Just saying🤷‍♀️

You see, thrump bought these “ justices “, bought and paying for. You know, there’s enuff of us to take him out of office before his so-far legal ( crooked judges) date. There is POWER in numbers. No violence, we need a way..........

Of course they did. Republicans want to keep it as close as possible so that the SC gets to decide the ultimate winner in the end. They know if people get to vote and those votes are counted and the SC will help them anyway they can. Roberts won’t care now that he has more cover

When the courts decide whether The GOP have broken the law are filled w/ GOP loyalists that will call any action they take legal, we're plunging a knife into the heart of democracy. W/out the courts, a Super Majority could be meaningless. Barrett & Gorsuch must be removed now.

God help us. The SCOTUS will dismantle our Democracy one decision at a time.

And so it begins... AmyConeyBarrettSCOTUS

Moscow gang is corrupt.

Go Trump! Winning! New SCJ Amey!

Motherfuckers

They know they are losing this is what this is about...If they didn't think so, why would it matter to wait a few days? They don't want those mailed in ballots to count as majority of mailed in are from democrats!!!!
