Supreme Court Slap to Donald Trump and Republicans: The highest American judicial body has decided that in Pennsylvania, one of the most important hanging states, votes by mail will be counted if they are received within three days of election day, even if they are not a legible postmark. A victory for the dem, because the president and the Grand Old Party demanded that only the ballots delivered by election day be counted. Four judges voted against, but President John Roberts sided with the three liberal robots.
The Republican Party of Pennsylvania had asked for the suspension of the sentence of a state court but to obtain it it needed 5 votes. President Roberts has been instrumental in moving to the left in an area where he has a very conservative track record. But the result suggests that the judge Amy Coney Barrett, nominated by Trump, could play a decisive role in electoral disputes if confirmed before the vote.
