I don't know if that's true. According to the discussion on Fox, there are 6 days after the Electors are put in place before the vote. There may be no change to the Electors during those 6 days. Now, if these dates are set by the Constitution, and from this discussion, I believe that's the case, and we now know that a Court cannot rewrite Law, my guess is that the USSC effectively put an end to this today. The feeling was, they would not have halted the recount... specifying that it cannot continue until a USSC ruling, if they didn't already have the votes.

oh goody - Jim Willie thinks the Supreme Court can dispense with the Constitution: USSC has the authority to slide that date and other dates I see no problem in sliding all dates by 4 days "The Congress may determine the time of choosing the electors and the day on which they shall give their votes; which day shall be the same throughout the United States." Oh - I see - it is okay for Republicans to violate the sanctity of the branches of government and one Republican also thinks it is okay for the Court to make up new rules as it goes along. What goes around comes around.
