After consideration I would give a 90% chance that the US Supreme Court will not get involved, and I believe that it is absolutely critical that they not get involved. Yes, voter fraud such as fabricating votes is an ugly issue, but it is an American tradition, and it certainly is not a constitutional crisis. To have a President elected because some county engaged in fraudulent counting techniques to manufacture votes for one candidate or the other would be tragic, but not nearly so tragic as having the half the country conclude that the US Supreme Court is nothing but political hacks. They have nothing to gain by getting involved, and a convenient excuse for not getting involved, which they should (and probably will) exercise. Carl
