It is not "right wing craziness" to point out that the Constitution limits state election law amendments to the state legislatures.
Changes made by judges, bureaucrats, etc., produce Constitutionally invalid results in those states and no amount of name calling and foot stamping will change that.

State legislatures can assign responsibility to whomever they want, including election boards or the Secretary of State. State courts are allowed to review and interpret legislation. All your name calling and foot stomping won't change THAT. You had your day in court. You lost. Get over it.

This is almost like the liberal reaction to the birther argument. They zeroed in on whether Obama was born in the USA, when the actionable argument was whether a natural born citizen could have a parent who was not a US citizen.
The only time the US Supreme Court mentioned it, the court specified "citizen parents" (plural).
So again, they ignore the readily actionable argument and instead focus on the less actionable one.
Liberals... so transparent.

You're wrong across the board.
In New York State the legislature appointed a commission to determine if the legislature deserved a raise and would abide by their ruling. The legislature cannot delegate spending and taxing to another entity, especially one not answerable to the voters.
But more specifically, you are wrong in the premise that the legislatures delegated any of these powers and that the courts may usurp them.
You are dismissed now.

That is a pretty funny post, even the source he cites has zero to do with what he claims and the Razzy does not say what he implies
These wingers keep talking about Biden being senile, they themselves are the only ones who still believe that Trump won an election five months ago where Trump got seven million less votes than the other guy

No, you're 100% wrong. The state legislature delegated their pay raise to an outside body, who decided to raise my taxes.
Similarly, in New York we have Industrial Development Agencies who grant property tax breaks to businesses which in turn raises property taxes for single family home owners. Again, unelected bureaucrats raising our taxes, unanswerable to the voters... completely unconstitutional.

Oops.
Because in his heart the OP and the rest of the Cult KNOW that #TRE45ON lost -- and lost soundly to an "old man with dementia." But by pretending that they don't believe it was a righteous election, they think that they can save face. Even if it's got egg dripping down, it's face. lol
