Our billionth reminder that every lever of power matters. The Republican-dominated Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court just ruled PA's mail voting law unconstitutional. This court's members are elected in partisan elections to 10-year terms. Expect this ruling to be appealed, but please please pretty please keep the courts in mind for any future election in CO – including who appoints the CO Supremes, who controls the US Senate, and who takes the White House in 2024. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/28/us/politics/pennsylvania-mail-voting-law-unconstitutional.html
Ought to find out what's going to be a "final" decision relatively quickly. US News:
Apparently, the Republicans voted for the voting revision as part of a deal — Democrats were willing to allow the end of "straight ticket voting" — which Republicans thought might disadvantage them when Trump was on the 2020 ballot (duh!).
No word on whether the Court that ruled on this as "unconstitutional" will be willing to enforce the contract on the deal, restoring straight ticket voting as they end expanded mail voting.
I vote for the courts in every election. U.S. Senators, President, and the Governor are the only votes the people get for them.
I'd say this is a case of adults acting like children … but it is much, MUCH worse.
