    I’m neither a Constitutional scholar nor a lawyer. I’ll go with Marbury v Madison as who gets to decide those finer points.

    And they decided 9-0.

        their own ballots

        Not federal ballots.

        Except a state tried here and got slapped down 9-0. Seems to me it was deemed unconstitutional by the folks that decide that sort of thing.

            Lol. It’s ok to disagree with the decision. It’s ok to be mad at the decision. It’s ok to internet argue the constitutionality of the decision. All of it makes this >< much difference. Trump will be on the ballot, will be the nominee, and will be absolutely crushed by the most popular president in history. I don’t know why anyone is worried.
