Moore v Harper Could End Our Democracy [View all]

[gab13by13]

Gorsuch, Alito, Thomas, and Kavanaugh signed on for the SC to hear this case.

This case is about adopting the "independent state legislature doctrine." State legislatures have absolute authority to run their elections.

This case came about because NC legislators gerrymandered 10 districts to favor Republicans and 4 districts to favor Democrats, even though the parties in the state are pretty evenly split. The NC Supreme Court rejected the map because it said the map violated the state's Constitution. Well this fascist Supreme Court is taking a look at this case, it is on the docket.

What this means is that state legislators will have authority over its state SC, over the state Constitution, over election officials, and possibly over the will of the people in selecting electors to the Electoral college.

Gorsuch, Alito, and Thomas are going to vote for this and most likely so will Barrett. Saving our democracy may come down to how Kavanaugh and Roberts vote.

I live in Pa. and my legislators want this. The state legislators will have absolute authority over how elections are run and decided.

Fascism is fast approaching. Watch for this SC case - Moore v Harper.
