Question about SCOTUS

[Orrex]

Hypothetically, could they overturn Bush v. Gore 2000?

I know tht it's not likely, given the current leanings of the cour, but could they do it if they wanted to? What would be the impact?

[MrModerate]

1. Can't imagine how that'd be possible . . .

Especially since we've had the 2004 election (stolen in an entirely different manner) since then.

I'm not a constitutionalist, but not only has that horse left the barn, but the barn's been demolished and the site paved over for a strip mall.

3. Obviously they wouldn't overturn two whole elections, but

Could the underlying issue of vote-counting and state's judiciary power be revisited?

[MrModerate]

4. Someone'd need to bring a specific case to trial . . .

That would revisit Bush v. Gore. But directly overturning, can't be done.

2. No, the issue has become moot

Bush has already served out his first term as President.
