Reminds me of an old SNL skit on Weekend Update.
The White House supposedly received a bunch of letters from kindergarten aged kids and published them.
The first one is a long empty letter full of flowery speech to say “Republicans aren’t fair” and ends with “PS, Paula Jones was asking for it.”
The second one reads “Newt Gingrich is a BAD BAD MAN! PS, Paula Jones was asking for it.”

I thought he meant "one or two," not "one of two."

This is far better reasoning than I recall from the Colorado dissenters. Barrett (and to a lesser extent the liberal justices) may have a point that the majority opinion decides more than it needed to, but this is still a 9-0 decision and all justices agree that a state cannot enforce Article 3. This is a good day and decision for our republic!

I'm reading now, but I can just quote ACB to explain:
quote:
I join Parts I and II–B of the Court’s opinion. I agree that States lack the power to enforce Section 3 against Presidential candidates. That principle is sufficient to resolve this case, and I would decide no more than that. This suit was brought by Colorado voters under state law in state court. It does not require us to address the complicated question whether federal legislation is the exclusive vehicle through which Section 3 can be enforced.

Now the Secretary of State and any government official in Colorado who supported that BS should be immediately stripped of office... for blatant subversion of the Constitution and right to vote in free/fair elections.
Wouldn’t thier actions be “election interference”? If so I wonder if the DoJ will open a case? Maybe send an FBI swat team to their house at 5AM with CNN in tow!

Wow a 9-0 sweep.
DU will still call this unconstitutional.

I reject the idea that they are somehow addressing an additional "complicated question" here.
I submit they are simply stating what is inherent in the rationale of actually reaching the decision that there is no way a state can unilaterally determine such a thing.

Sure, but it's very rare that they take the extra step (hence the "long shot" description). The last time they did this was what, Citizens United?

Sorry about this loss. You’ll get some wins soon.

Barrett's full concurrence:

It does not require us to address the complicated question whether federal legislation is the exclusive vehicle through which Section 3 can be enforced. The majority’s choice of a different path leaves the remaining Justices with a choice of how to respond. In my judgment, this is not the time to amplify disagreement with stridency. The Court has settled a politically charged issue in the volatile season of a Presidential election. Particularly in this circumstance, writings on the Court should turn the national temperature down, not up. For present purposes, our differences are far less important than our unanimity: All nine Justices agree on the outcome of this case. That is the message Americans should take home.
