Jason Harrow, Equal Citizens Exec Dir, Chief Counsel, On Supreme Court's Trump Rejection Zennie62Media present's Zennie Abraham's livestream interview with Jason Harrow, at 9:15 PM EST, Tuesday, December 8th, 2020. Today the United States Supreme Court rejected a bid by a Republican member of Congress and other GOP activists to overturn President-elect Joe Biden’s win in Pennsylvania. Jason Harrow, chief counsel and executive director of Equal Citizens, released the following arguing the legal challenges ultimately sought to overturn legally cast votes. “Trump’s and his Republican supporters’ legal strategy all along has been tantamount to having the legally cast votes of the people of Pennsylvania thrown out, and the United States Supreme Court rejected that strategy today. “This attempt by a Republican member of Congress and GOP activists today to overturn the popular vote in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania failed with the U.S. Supreme Court because there is no evidence of fraud. “The cold hard truth is Joe Biden will be sworn in as the 46th President of the United States because he overwhelmingly won Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes – which put him over the top.” Harrow recently penned a guest editorial in The Philadelphia Inquirer arguing that any attempt to overturn the popular vote in the state would overturn “we the people.” Harrow writes in The Philadelphia Inquirer op-ed: Trump’s campaign to overturn the popular vote would have Pennsylvania reach the opposite conclusion and instead not “We the People rule,” but we the politicians, or even we the (mostly unknown) members of the electoral college. Nothing could be more offensive to our constitutional tradition. Under the Constitution, the state legislature got to pick how electors are chosen, and it chose to hold an election by popular vote, as every other state has done for over a century. Once that choice was made, as the Supreme Court recognized, it is not for anyone to interfere with that choice - not the state legislatures, and certainly not the electors. To attempt to undermine the will of the people by manipulating the appointment of electors or how they vote would be to subvert the text and intent of our founding document. It can’t happen in our constitutional system.
