Can You Hack an Election in 7 Minutes?
Texas Senator Ted Cruz issued a statement yesterday calling upon the Supreme Court to hear a Pennsylvania election challenge stemming from a lawsuit filed by PA congressional candidate Sean Parnell and Congressman Mike Kelly (R-PA).
Last month, the two Pennsylvanians filed a lawsuit claiming that universal mail-in voting was unconstitutional in their state. Unsurprisingly, the Democrat-led PA Supreme Court rejected the lawsuit and Parnell and Kelly filed an emergency appeal to the Supreme Court.
“This appeal raises serious legal issues, and I believe the Court should hear the case on an expedited basis,” Cruz wrote.
“The Pennsylvania Constitution requires in-person voting, except in narrow and defined circumstances. Late last year, the Pennsylvania Legislature passed a law that purported to allow universal mail-in voting, notwithstanding the Pennsylvania Constitution’s express prohibition,” his statement continues.
Cruz also cited Americans’ lack of trust in election integrity as a reason for the Supreme Court to get involved.
“As of today, according to Reuters/Ipsos polling, 39 percent of Americans believe that “the election was rigged. That is not healthy for our democracy,” he wrote. “The bitter division and acrimony we see across the nation needs resolution. And I believe the U.S. Supreme Court has a responsibility to the American people to ensure that we are following the law and following the Constitution. Hearing this case-now, on an emergency expedited basis-would be an important step in helping rebuild confidence in the integrity of our democratic system.”
