It’s just a matter of which court.

If SC picks it up, when they drop their ruling is the unknown factor.

I had thought there were no dissents when SC denied Smith but I might be mistaken about that.

Most folk seem to think that the SC has to drop what they’re doing and tend to all of these urgent matters.

They don’t.

The USSC could choose to sit on their hands and run these cases according to their usual schedule.

It’s entirely possible that Chump will be on ALL primary ballots if SC sits back on their heels.
