WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court refused Friday to let Texas challenge the election results in four battleground states critical to President Donald Trump s defeat at the polls last month, likely sealing his political fate. Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another state conducts its elections, the court said in a brief order. It dismissed all other related claims as moot.
Texas had made, and Trump had endorsed, an 11th-hour effort to have the nation s highest court block Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin from casting their electoral votes for Biden Monday. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton claimed the four states used the coronavirus pandemic as a pretext to change election rules and greatly expand mail voting in violation of the Constitution.
