[lolitics / lolsuits] The squidigation continues with the dumbest filing yet

https://electionlawblog.org/...

They aren't asking for much, just that the courts grant a relief that would also technically invalidate every election we've held since at least the 1950s

Suing the Electoral College is also certainly a uh.

It's a novel strategy, at the very least

(they're also suing the US House of Representatives and the US Senate, because fuck it just sue everyone)

Oh ffs

oh no, not the electoral college. what will we do without it

"Yet, at present state legislatures are unable to meet."

As they have been for literal decades

due to being out of session during this time

Also I almost forgot, but here's Mike taking a stab at reading this thing. For those of you wondering what it looks like to watch a lawyer livetweet their descent into madness.

anyone with a lot of time to waste want to go over states that Trump won with a fine-toothed comb to find comparable irregularities?

𝔥𝔞𝔯𝔩𝔢𝔮𝔲𝔦𝔫 have you ever seen a more elegant way for the presiding Judge to tell a party they can go fuck themselves?

(For anyone who doesn't have time to read the explainer: You can't serve the electoral college because the electoral college doesn't actually exist, it's just the name given to the process. Trying to sue the electoral college is like falling off a ladder and trying to sue gravity for damages)

In other, related news:

Not the squidigation but L. Lin Wood's lawsuit just got tossed in Georgia (no not that lawsuit, the other one)

𝔥𝔞𝔯𝔩𝔢𝔮𝔲𝔦𝔫 hey so is it good for you when the judge specifically calls you out like that

like "As we told YOU, SPECIFICALLY, before all this..."
