SCOTUS Has Ideas Pertaining To The State's Jurisdiction Except Where E******n Laws Are Concerned

E******n laws are derived from every state's board of e******ns and their state's constitution. Unless the case involves challenges that the state is violating the federal constitution, the state supreme court is the final word. It is not the place of SCOTUS to interpret any state's supreme court. Our supreme court recently v**ed on whether to hear the case of Pennsylvania e******n law where the case had been already (correctly) decided by their supreme court.

In the first place the case was i***tic in that it was about allowing a few extra days to receive or count b****ts that had been turned in and post marked by e******n day. That is the criteria used in virtually every state, as long as you get your b****t turned into the post office and post marked by e******n day your b****t is good, it doesn't matter from there how many days it takes to get to the actual counting...it's good.

When the supreme court stepped into the Florida Gore v Bush case it could and had been decided by Florida courts, the GOP running the challenge didn't like lower court outcomes. The supreme court actually limited their decision to that case alone and not applicable as a federal precedent because they knew it was not the supreme court's place to interfere with the state and didn't want it happening in the future. That case involved allowing a totally illegal procedure to be allowed for that case only, and the supreme court knew it did not want that rule allowed in any other case.

This article covers some interesting legality background...
