BREAKING: Supreme Court Strikes Down Rewrite of State Election Law by District Court Judge ‐ The Battle Is Joined
2020-10-06
[RedState] Late Monday afternoon, the Supreme Court issued a “Stay” with regard to an order from a South Carolina federal district court judge who rewrote a provision of South Carolina election law due to the impact of COVID 19.

Judge Julianna Michelle Childs, an appointee of President Obama, granted an injunction for Plaintiffs preventing the South Carolina election officials from enforcing a provision of South Carolina election law requiring a witness signature on an absentee ballot envelope.

After about 60 pages of legal sophistry, Judge Childs finally gets around to holding the same way every other Obama-appointed Judge has held — that COVID 19 changes everything.

In no uncertain terms, that means that Judge Childs’ order will not be enforced until after the Sixth Circuit has heard and decided the appeal of her Order by election officials in South Carolina. That won’t be happening in only four weeks — but just in case it does, the order won’t go into effect if upheld until disposition on a petition for writ of certiorari is heard and disposed of in the Supreme Court — and that is CERTAIN to not happen in the next four weeks.

#7  But didn't I see that the Michigan AG (another liberal female Democrat) say that she would not enforce any of the governor's orders?

That's right; that was announced a day or so after the MI SC handed down its ruling. Almost makes me proud I live in Maskachusetts instead!

#6  If they ignore them, send in federal SWAT teams to arrest them for violating citizens civil rights under the color of law.

#5  #3 My $'s on Whitmer ignoring the courts first - she just lost a court case w/ the MI Supreme Court invalidating her state of emergency

Correct. That dead doll-eyed witch vowed to oppose the law "vehemently" - code word for extra-legally, "by any means necessary" yadda yadda

Echoes of southern nullifier seggy gub'nahs.

Another George Wallace, except uglier and more ignorant

Perhaps setting herself up for a primary challenge next time around?

#3  My $'s on Whitmer ignoring the courts first - she just lost a court case w/ the MI Supreme Court invalidating her state of emergency, which for some strange reason the court said could continue for three more weeks.

#2  I'm just waiting for the governors to start ignoring the courts. That is the next step.
