Alabama and Louisiana attorneys general back Supreme Court challenge of 2020 election
The states of Alabama and Louisiana joined a last-ditch lawsuit filed to the Supreme Court by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Monday alleging several key states acted unconstitutionally by changing voting rules amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry said Tuesday that "tens of millions of our fellow citizens in the country have deep concerns regarding the conduct of the 2020 federal elections," adding that "the Justices should hear and decide the case which we have joined representing the citizens of Louisiana."
Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall said his state is committed to "the fight to ensure election integrity" and that the Supreme Court's decision on the lawsuit will "instruct me as to how the State of Alabama will proceed in our fight to ensure election integrity."

— Attorney General Steve Marshall (@AGSteveMarshall) December 8, 2020The lawsuit, which has been called "insane" by some legal scholars, follows a string of lawsuits filed by Trump allies and independent attorneys who allege improprieties in the election. The latest lawsuit aims to pave the way for states to appoint pro-Trump electors, which could hand President Trump a reelection victory.
In the lawsuit filed by Texas, Paxton argued that changes to voting rules in battleground states ahead of the 2020 election “opened the door to election irregularities in various forms.” The suit lists Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin as defendants.
“Trust in the integrity of our election processes is sacrosanct and binds our citizenry and the States in this Union together," Paxton wrote. "Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin destroyed that trust and compromised the security and integrity of the 2020 election. The states violated statutes enacted by their duly elected legislatures, thereby violating the Constitution. By ignoring both state and federal law, these states have not only tainted the integrity of their own citizens’ vote, but of Texas and every other state that held lawful elections. Their failure to abide by the rule of law casts a dark shadow of doubt over the outcome of the entire election. We now ask that the Supreme Court step in to correct this egregious error.”
The suit argues that it is statistically impossible for Joe Biden to win Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin. The Georgia attorney general’s office rejected the suit, saying Paxton was "constitutionally, legally and factually wrong about Georgia."
