The Supreme Court announced on Thursday that it would hear a case that could radically reshape how federal elections are conducted by giving state legislatures independent power, not subject to review by state courts, to set election rules in conflict with state constitutions.

The case has the potential to affect many aspects of the 2024 election, including by giving the justices power to influence the presidential race whenever state courts interpret their constitutions to require changes to state election laws
.

Some of the DU comments about this NYTimes quote: (there are a ton more)
1. THIS is the coup we needed to be frightened of, and it happened in 2016.

3. If Democrats don't expand SCOTUS well before 2024, they will never have another POTUS...
A permanent RW overthrow of the Constitution is in process right out in the open. Waiting until it happens to react will be too late

4. I know some people don't want to hear this...
But I think our only chance to prevent a fascist takeover now is that we prepare ourselves for Civil War so that the Republicans are so afraid of the devastation that they will be reluctant to try this shite. We must not only promise to burn their house down but have the capability

14. Oh. My. God. This is unbelievable. The court must be expanded NOW. But can it be done?

So the party against guns wants a civil war against people who adamantly support your right to own one?

It's inevitable at this point. They will just keep taking L after L, and they will continue to think "Their Democracy" is crumbling. It will lead them down the path to become more and more radical. We will have no choice but to defend ourselves.

I am happy to be on the right side in this conflict, the side that trusts in God, is heavily armed, and can distinguish between male and female.

Those leftist will be running and crying if they went toe to toe with the conservatives...They talk smack but when faced with actual physicality they will roll over in a fetal position.

It’s actually the exact fricking opposite.

fricking democrats still making up their own reality even when it is right there to read. It’s unambiguous.

This must be the winning trump always talked about. Feels good that we can still win even with a turnip for president and the economy collapsing.

This is not their great-great-great-grandpappy's Civil War, where the North had all the armament manufacturing. Most of those firms were run out by the DU types, and now are run down South.

So, following the Constitution that says State Legislatures have the power to choose the time, place, and manner of elections? Article I Section 4 Clause 1. Anything else is unconstitutional and the fact that the Supreme Court refused to hear the PA case in which the PA Supreme Court overrode the Legislature was a travesty.

No shite, it would be terrible but when the dust settled there wouldn’t be enough democrats left to win an election for the next 300 years!

It's amazing how it's gone from "just vote your guy in and get the legislation you want" to "everything that we don't agree with is cause for civil war and the destruction of our democracy".

The left thinks they are entitled to every single court case to go their way or it's a "coup" or it's time to threaten the SCOTUS. This country is irreparably broken.
