I expect the Texas case to be dismissed under the basic premise that the floor of Congress on Jan 6th is the preferred venue to adjudicate these types of questions. Which is probably true. But don’t expect either chamber to have an epiphany that day.

That SCOTUS kicked Kelly’s PA case shows they have zero appetite to even wade into this mess even a little. Sad, because on the questions raised there, SCOTUS is the proper & only venue. I guess we should cheer now because PA gets to ignore their Constitution because Federalism??
The only thing I’m still really looking out for is the dissent(s) in the Texas case. If they just dismiss the case with an unsigned order it will be incredibly damaging to whatever collective trust in SCOTUS is left.
NOTE: I’m not advocating that SCOTUS should punt the Texas case to Congress — it really should weigh in. I’m just predicting what I expect them to do. Approaching the case with seriousness and deciding the significant Constitutional issues presented is essential. And healing.
