@Teri_Kanefield What a relief. Only two of the justices on our nation's highest court value democracy so little that they believe the legislature would have the power to negate elections.

True, & I suppose they're not wrong in that. Though I do wish they wouldn't so often just completely ignore prior decisions. @Teri_Kanefield
@Teri_Kanefield@BernieDoesIt
Right, but does Brown v Board of Ed acknowledge that Plessy v Verguson exists? We've had several cases in recent years where an opinion just ignores the existence of precedent. (I can't recall them OTOMH & I don't remember if they were majority or concurring.)
@Teri_Kanefield
It wasn't Dobbs. It was before that. My recollection is that the specific one i'm thinking of was a Barret opinion, but the observation's been made about at least one Alito opinion.
Again, I can't remember the details, other than that I'm pretty sure the Alito opinion was concurring, not majority.
