I agree. That risk did become a little smaller this past Election Day.


It’ll take a while though. It is unfortunate that the court got to this place because of epic repub hypocrisy resulting in 2 of those SC confirmations. The country is going to have to live with that for a long time.

This case about state legislatures’ control of elections could be deeply consequential to our democracy though. Fingers crossed - not all repubs are in favor of this “independent state legislature” theory, according to this article. That could tip us back towards autocracy.
