The US Supreme Court rejected a bid to block the ballots of millions of voters in battleground states that went in favor of Democrat, Joe Biden.
This means that Donald Trump’s hopes of retaining power has practically been delt a final blow by the countries judiciary and last hope for Trumps drive to return to the white house.
Trump has been unable to provide proof to back his claims of voter fraud. According to CNN, the court on Friday, December 11, ruled that the suit which was filed Texas’ attorney general, Ken Paxton and supported by Trump did not have any legal standing.
The order stated:
“The State of Texas’s motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied for lack of standing under Article III of the Constitution. Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections. All other pending motions are dismissed as moot.”
Sky News also reported that the suit had called into doubt the results in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, which all voted for Biden. It was backed by 18 states and more than 100 Republican members of the US Congress. But the verdict by the Supreme Court may have dealt a final blow on the efforts by the Trump camp to undo the president’s election loss.
In the meantime, President Donald Trump has said the administration of Joe Biden will be full of scandals for many years. Trump who made the claim via Twitter on Friday, December 11, also urged the US Supreme Court to follow the constitution and do the needful.
The incumbent, apparently referring to the outcome of the US presidential election, asked the court to save the USA, How? He never said.
