| Justice Thomas wrote a blistering dissent about this. | |
| And in particular, look, the legal doctrine on whether a case is moot or not, in other words, there's no reason now to make a decision that the matter is over, is you don't consider it moot if what happened is capable of repetition and evading review. | |
| And that exactly describes the situation that happened in Pennsylvania and, in fact, why this decision is so dangerous. | |
| Because it gives a green light now to government officials in future elections, like secretaries of state or governors or state judges, to say, oh, you know, that state law, for example, that requires an ID when you go vote, I really don't like that. | |
| And I think it'll help the candidates of my political party if I just override that law. | |
| And this Supreme Court decision by refusing to take this case basically says, yeah, go ahead and do that. | |
| We may not have time out. | |
| I'll carry you over. | |
| But what I'm not clear on is why the Supreme Court of the United States has jurisdiction over a state ruling. | |
| Is that a wrong question? | |
| No, no, it's a correct question. | |
| The reason is that what the state court and the Secretary of State did violated the U.S. Constitution. | |
| Okay, explain that as soon as we get back. | |
| Okay, that's what I needed to hear. | |
| I don't know why. |
