Texas’ unusual battle to obtain election results in the swing states of Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin and Michigan has been unsuccessful.
The United States Supreme Court has dismissed the lawsuit.
“From a legal perspective, it’s over,” election analyst Steve Vladeck told CNN.
On Tuesday, the Republican and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit on behalf of the state. In the lawsuit, it is claimed once again that extensive electoral fraud was carried out in this year’s presidential elections, again without any concrete evidence being presented for the allegations.
The goal was to overthrow the election result and allow state leaders themselves to choose voters and thus have the opportunity to change the result to keep President Donald Trump in the White House.
– Self-coup
American expert and researcher Norce Hilmar Mjelde is aware that Trump’s attempts to reverse a lost election have always been futile.
– Trump is attempting a “self-coup”, a self-coup in which he can remain in power even if he loses the election. But it was doomed from the start, because the American political system is robust, Mjelde tells Dagbladet.
The American expert is aware that Biden’s electoral victory has never been threatened by Trump’s attempt to steal the elections, “nor by his Republican lackeys who have also put their own political interests before the country and the Constitution.”
Trump supporters say the process should go its own way when what the process is supposed to investigate, allegedly voter fraud, is totally fabricated. And this process is used to undermine confidence in the political system, Mjelde notes, adding:
– The Trump administration’s strategy is, as Steve Bannon once said, “flood the shit zone.” That is, spreading so much misinformation that people no longer hang. In this way, Trump can give the impression that the election is not over yet. But the election is definitely over. The lawsuits are rubbish.
– A new
American expert and advisor to the Civita think tank, Eirik Løkke, agrees with Mjelde that Trump’s many attempts to torpedo the election result have long been doomed.
– This is a new nail in the coffin. The Supreme Court now repeats what everyone has said. Biden won the election. There has been no talk of widespread electoral fraud. Trump can certainly come up with crazier ideas after this, but he’s actually been the nail in the coffin for a long time, Løkke says.
However, he emphasizes that Monday, December 14, when voters will cast their vote, is an anniversary.
To Dagbladet on Friday, Løkke declared that Texas “extraordinary intervention” and the fight to invalidate the election result in four turning states, is nothing more than a “clown coup attempt” that will end in embarrassment for the state. .
– Trump will likely come up with new things until he takes office on January 20, and probably even longer, but the Supreme Court will continue to reject whatever comes to him, says Løkke.
