Well they are on the docket

@markmen, you just advanced to level 11!

@Autumn_Katrina I wish internet access was still limited through governmental institutions universities and the alike... This media has made it very easy to cheap & manipulate the masses.

No. It limited their ability to challenge it's constitutionality to a specific court.

"(2) The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has exclusive jurisdiction to hear a challenge to or to render a declaratory judgment concerning the constitutionality of a provision referred to in paragraph (1). The Supreme Court may take action it deems appropriate, consistent with the Supreme Court retaining jurisdiction over the matter, to find facts or to expedite a final judgment in connection with such a challenge or request for declaratory relief."

This is never not the right of the Pennsylvania Supreme court. They literally excluded other courts.

Because of the next vice president... yes.

Yes. Merits are there is the state case. 4 swing states voided thier elections trying to change rules and overstep thier powers.

@Corndog but i would argue that texas has less standing than a citizen of the state itself. otherwise each state will sue eachother each time they do something they dont like

@DrSammyD so what? Why wouldn't a challenge to an election law which will in ~6 months effect all elections in the State not go directly to the highest court in the State?

War is peace
Freedom of slavery

...

@Vegas.James defense will argue covid

@markmen blame all the decisions that are undesirable on the machine learning...

@DrSammyD And it's not a right of the SCOPA it's a prerogative of the elected PA legislature to identify the court challenges should go to in the 6 month window so a resolution can be expedited.

No those cases do not have standing if they are constitutional differences. Only because there was unfair perceieved treatment within the constitution will any case have enough standing.

Because this should not be a valid method of passing unconstitutional laws.

1) Wait until you have a favorable Supreme Court
2) Exclude any other Court from ruling on it, And ensure only the Supreme Court can rule on it
3) Set a time limit of 180 days to when you can challenge it's constitutionality, and then it goes into effect
4) When nobody challenges it because you have a favorable supreme court, if later, somebody challenges it, cite that they didn't challenge it during the 180 days.

@busillis aliens

The aliens another likely culprit.

I've actually used the machine learning excuse...

@DrSammyD what you're missing is that this law was not Unconstitutional when it was passed and it has not been deemed Unconstitutional by any court.

@Corndog but historically some states didnt even have widespread voting

People buy it it's quite pathetic.

Historically there wasn't even a popular vote in most states.

@DrSammyD if you wanted to claim Act 77 was unconstitutional you were given the chance during that 6 month window to make your case to the SCOPA.

God bless Lin Wood for rolling grenades into Georgia Republican politics.

@Corndog exactly. so couldnt they use that as a defence?

I'm taking it they rolled back?

Hahaha

@FP Robert said they were making amendments right up until 2 days before the election

... I need to remind myself to get a flip phone, my addiction to this is coming insane.

You're arguing in circles. It's not unconstitutional because It wasn't challenged, and now it can't be challenged because the law is now in effect.

So like I said. What if the time limit was 10 minutes after the bill was passed?

what does Lin Wood stand to gain if it is all lies? he will basically blow his whole reputation

@markmen who was making amendments. The law was signed by the PA Gov on about Oct-31-2019. It was set then and went into effect the next April.

@FP, you just advanced to level 2!

10 days?

@FP How are you going to demonstrate damages before the damages occur?

Sure but that would not help defende against the remedy of sending it back to the legislatures

> @DrSammyD if you wanted to claim Act 77 was unconstitutional you were given the chance during that 6 month window to make your case to the SCOPA.
@FP Why would you do that when you have a chance for the outcome you want? Keep it in your back pocket for a chance to steal if things go south.

“@FP pretty sure he said it was SOS

Also... It was a Republican led PA legislature that passed Act 77. This wasn't the Dems trying to pull one over. Prior to the pandemic, mail-in voting almost always favored Republicans.
