It will be a hoot when the president changes his tune at 11:59 PM on November 3 when he is losing in key states.

He’ll insist that all the ballots be counted and he will be right.
It will be a bigger hoot when at the same moment he calls on states where he’s winning to stop the count
I am being told that @MikeSacksEsq got here first

BREAKING: Supreme Court *rejects* Pennsylvania Republicans’ second attempt to block extended ballot deadline.
[correcting earlier tweet]: there are no dissents, but Justices Alito, Gorsuch and Thomas file a heated statement lamenting that the litigation got this far.
WOW: the Alito, Gorsuch & Thomas statement also indicates the PA petition could be re-considered AFTER the election and ballots could be thrown out THEN

NEW at SCOTUS: yet another emergency request from the GOP to block pandemic-related voting accommodations. This time in North Carolina. ImageImage
This request comes in a different posture from recent Republican requests, as it pits the GOP state legislature against the state board of elections, which entered into a consent judgement with advocacy groups pushing for the voting accommodations.
At issue: waived postmark and witness requirements and and an extended receipt deadline for mail-in ballots.

Republicans want all these erased.

If you're wondering why CJ Roberts voted to reinstate the ban on curbside voting in Alabama tonight but voted to *permit* a voting accommodation in Pennsylvania on Monday...

The common denominator seems to be federalism: let the states run their elections as they choose.
Of course, it's a little more complicated than that.
In PA, SCOTUS refused to block a ruling from the state supreme court that extended (contrary to the legislature's wish) the deadline for mail-in ballots under the right-to-vote provision of the state constitution.

Ratcliffe: Iran and Russia have taken specific actions to influence public opinion in America.

They have voter registration info.

Iran has sent spoof emails to intimidate voters and damage President Trump, Ratcliffe says.
Ratcliffe: you can be confident your votes are secure.
So far no clarification of how Iran's actions were intended to damage Trump, specifically. Puzzling.
