"An election free from strong evidence of systemic fraud is not alone sufficient for election confidence," Justice Thomas wrote.
Ginni probably wrote it for Clarence.
Kid if there is no strong evidence of systemic election fraud, why would anyone attempt to undermine confidence in our elections?
IMO the strong evidence of fraud in our election system is the ongoing voter suppression actions undertaken by some states.
And I hope DoJ fights like hell to protect voters and their right to exercise their legal right to vote.
YMMV
"The decision to leave election law hidden beneath a shroud of doubt is baffling," he wrote. "By doing nothing, we invite further confusion and erosion of voter confidence. Our fellow citizens deserve better and expect more of us."
Thomas had written, "there is no strong evidence of systemic election fraud."
The sad conclusion that Thomas dances around is that the shroud of doubt was a shroud woven by the lies told for years by the right and most recently by Trump and his band of stop the steal conspiracy theorists.
in over 60 court cases not one court found any election fraud.
Thomas could have gone a long way in lifting the shroud of doubt, and helping America heal, by telling the truth, and telling Trump's army of delusional and disaapointed supporters, "there was no steal, no fraud, and Biden won the 2020 election fair and square."
But rather he continued to weave one more strand in the shroud of lies and deceipt spun by the conspiratorial remnants of what was once a proud Republican party.
He is promoting the confusion.
By doing nothing, the SC affirmed by a non-partisan 6-3 vote, there was nothing to address.
