Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall routinely touts his support of statesâ rights, complaining loudly about federal overreach.
For those who took seriously his professed devotion to the 10th Amendment, therefore, it must have come as a surprise that he signed onto a Texas lawsuit that sought to use a federal entity â the U.S. Supreme Court â to overturn the election results in four sovereign states: Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Georgia.
The lawsuit was not only a violation of the statesâ rights principles that Marshall claims to hold dear, it was a baldly partisan attack on democracy. And maybe more important, given that Marshall is the chief legal officer of Alabama, it was a lawsuit that patently lacked merit.
