Is the following statement factually correct? Did the United States Supreme Court rule that "these election decisions should be left to the Florida Supreme Court"?

"Despite ruling just one week ago that these election decisions should be left to the Florida Supreme Court and
were not for federal scrutiny, the land's highest court seems to have changed course in deciding the hotly disputed
counts should stop for now."


If so, why did they vacate the Florida Supreme Court's ruling and remand asking for a clarification? Vacating a ruling is inconsistent with stating that the decision was not for federal scrutiny. And it is my contention that the opinion did not state that "these election decisions should be left to the Florida Supreme Court." If you contend that it did please point out where.
