How important are state supreme courts? More important than most realize. – The Washington Post

JG: Almost certainly. And there is a pretty good chance that these state high courts will, in effect, decide the outcome of the 2024 presidential election and perhaps the 2022 midterm elections as well. Since so much election law is grounded in state, not federal, law, state supreme courts, not federal courts, will determine the constitutionality of voter suppression schemes, gerrymandering attempts and challenges to state election certification efforts. That will consequently influence (if not determine) who will live in the White House.
