A bill that would allow county elections officials to start opening and prepping mail-in ballots one week before Election Day is on its way to the Pennsylvania Senate. However, opponents say there is a fatal flaw in the legislation. | KYW Newsradio

It seems as though every day yet another Democrat talks about packing the U.S. Supreme Court. Consider this:

The point of constitutional law is to have one branch of government, headed by the Supreme Court that can stand against majority will when it violates the nation’s fundamental law. The point of court-packing is the opposite: to create a Supreme Court that won’t stand in the way of majority will. In other words, court-packing is a wrecking ball to demolish the Constitution itself.

As you cast your ballot in November, be sure to ask yourself whether you really want to demolish the document that has made our nation the greatest on earth for 250 years.

California Votin

There are two key issues and they are related — 1) they allow mail in votes mailed thru Election Day and received a week later and 2) more importantly they allow ballot harvesting which is the mass canvassing and collection of ballots favorable to you.

So this means that a late ballot harvesting operation can be deployed to game the system (ie telling Dems in the last week that bass will be in but we need to squeeze Pratt out).

Obviously Florida now is a model system and California vote counting is a model of how to sow doubt by taking weeks rather than hours to count votes.

And ballot harvesting is banned in most states and should be banned everywhere as it promotes people sitting around tables pressured to vote certain ways as their ballots are collected by partisans. Add loose registration rules in states with a lot of non-citizens and you compound these problems.

Mail in votes should be counted only if received by the time the polls close and ballot harvesting should be banned and those two reforms would return fairness. And of course in California proof of citizenship is essential as well to provide confidence in the count. But it’s the harvesting rules that likely are the most problematic.

The Supreme Court has been set at nine justices since 1869. The Supreme Court has been nine justices for the lifetime of everyone now alive in the United States and even the lifetimes of the parents of everyone alive now.

House Judiciary Committee marked up HJR 1, a bill for a Constitutional Amendment to permanently set the Supreme Court at nine members. A date to bring the legislation to the floor for a vote has not yet been announced.

Contact your U.S. Representative (the House Switchboard number is (202) 224-3121) and ask them to vote for HJR1, the Keep Nine Amendment. You may also contact them via email. Find your U.S. Representative at this link: https://www.congress.gov/members/find-your-member
