The 'lack of standing' was the only way they would actually not have to listen to the evidence that was to be presented. Deny the claim beforehand on a technicality not based on any evidence whatsoever. I would love to hear just HOW it can be rationalized that a US President does not have standing in a dispute arising out of his own election. If that is the case, you could probably make the case that anyone can be denied a day in Court due to lack of standing.

Anyway, the USSC is political in that it must be able to adjudicate for all Americans, including politicians. Like they did with Gore. They can't 'stay out of' politics.

The Supremes suspended the rule of law in America. This is how militaries/dictators take over in third world Countries.

I understand, but this is a totally different case.

How can a state “lack standing” in an original jurisdiction dispute between states on a constitutional question - that I don’t know.
This article from the conservative "The Federalist" explains how a state can lack standing:
