US Elections: Is a Solution in Court Possible?



[ad_1]

Current President Donald Trump has accused the United States of rigging the elections. Not only the prosecution, it has also approached the court.

Trump went to court Wednesday to demand a halt to vote counting in three states, citing manipulation in the presidential election. The question is whether the court can interfere in the US elections. The question is whether the court can make a decision on this, not just in the United States, but around the world.

A large part of American legal experts say that the court cannot intervene in this way. The court can intervene and order certain matters related to the presidential election. As it happened in 2000. Republican candidates George W. Bush and Democrat Al Gore ran for election that year. That year, the United States Supreme Court responded to Bush’s request for a recount of votes and ordered a recount.

According to some experts, Bush’s claims that year were clear and definitive. The circumstances in which the request for a recount was made also had a definite basis.

Experts say Trump’s appeal is baseless. The way you oppose voting by mail has no legal basis. Trump’s allegations in court over Michigan, Pennsylvania, are unclear. As a result, there are considerable doubts as to whether the court will ultimately intervene.

Each state in the United States has its own laws. There are certain rules regarding postal ballots. Most experts believe that postal scrutiny is counted according to this rule. In fact, that’s why it’s taking so long to count votes this year. This time a record number of mail-in votes was cast thanks to Corona.

“The Supreme Court can examine two issues,” Ned Foley, a US voting and law expert, told the Associated Press. The legitimacy of a vote and the question of whether two are making significant changes to the result. The court can only intervene if these two issues are confirmed. He believes that Trump’s appeal does not address these two issues.

Of course, there are top legal experts with Trump. As a result, there is no reason to think that Trump’s appeal is completely unfounded. Trump has made it clear that the issue will go further. Joe Biden’s attorneys have also started drafting documents.

According to some political analysts, Trump has a huge advantage on the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court College has six Republican-era justices and three Democratic-era justices. Trump has been thinking about this issue for a long time, so in the run-up to the election, he first nominated the Chief Justice and then one more judge. There was a debate about that. Many also feel that Trump could gain some advantage in the Supreme Court, as Republicans are more assertive.
