On Monday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a preposterous lawsuit asserting Texas’s right to invalidate millions of ballots in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Georgia based on a theory that the four defendant states had failed to conduct clean elections, which somehow dilutes Texas’s electoral votes.
The theory has already been discarded by dozens of federal and state judges, and the Court has never recognized the right of one state to contest another’s election procedures. But that’s hardly the point the Supreme Court has original jurisdiction over interstate suits, so the president and his allies are betting all their chips that SCOTUS will swoop in and award Trump a second term now that Ken Paxton found a secret shortcut to Chief Justice Roberts’ doorstep.
