This is a stain on the court.
They won’t even look at the evidence because the issue is ‘moot’? Moot to who? Even if there’s a scant possibility that illegal votes were cast in a national election the issue is not ‘moot’.
But apparently there ‘are more pressing concerns’ for the country, like clearing the road for a peak at Trump’s tax returns.
I’m literally embarrassed for this court.

The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to reject the review of two 2020 Pennsylvania presidential election cases Monday.
Mass mail-in voting, which was conducted in Pennsylvania for the first time ahead of the 2020 presidential election in November, combined with election rules being rewritten at the last minute, makes the process prone to fraud and mistrust.
The Constitution gives to each state legislature authority to determine the 'manner' of federal elections, Yet both before and after the 2020 election, non-legislative officials in various states took it upon themselves to set the rules instead.
The Pennsylvania Legislature established an unambiguous deadline for receiving mail-in ballots: 8 p.m. on election day. Dissatisfied, the DEMOCRAT-dominated Pennsylvania Supreme Court extended that deadline by three days.
The court also ordered officials to count ballots received by the new deadline even if there was no evidence—such as a postmark—that the ballots were mailed by election day.
These cases provide us with an ideal opportunity to address just what authority non-legislative officials have to set election rules, and to do so well before the next election cycle.
The refusal to do so is inexplicable.

The court is staying in its lane. This is what Trumptards have wanted, and now they have it, and they are still whining like little babies. Tough shit. There was no fraud. Period. End of story. This subject is closed.

Right now, DEMOCRATS are passing what they euphemistically call a "rights" bill to make sure that their Party can never lose another election.
Then there's this:
Biden’s commission on court reform is likely to recommend sweeping changes to the judiciary system, including an expansion of lower courts.
The commission, which Biden announced on the campaign trail, came after activists pressured him to dilute the influence former President Donald Trump exerted on the courts through judicial nominations.

They are also looking at retroactive term limits to remove judges appointed by Trump.
Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

Even IF all the mail-in votes that arrived after the election were fraudulent votes for Biden (and nobody has ever tried to establish that afaik), it STILL wouldn't overturn Biden's victory margin of more than 80,000 votes. “A decision would not have any implications regarding the 2020 election,” Justice Alito wrote.
I don't believe Trump was expecting to overturn the election result, in this or any of his other lawsuits. He's not that much of a fool. He wanted to make enough "noise" so that his followers could say he was robbed. And here they are - doing it.
