Thanks. I’ve been seeing you with Glenn Kirschner and Allison Gill, with each of whom I’m a paid subscriber but your coverage convinced me to become your paid subscriber too. I love how you stay on the issues and report from the Court after the day’s hearings.

Good news relief, Adam. I will take that and run with it, whatever else may develop in the long term.

Thank you, Adam, for calming my fears. I do think we are going to be okay in California. Hopeful for everyone else.

Presumably David Becker, executive director of the Center for Election Innovation, knows his stuff when he says that, “voters will continue to experience the same safe, secure, and reliable voting process in 2026 that they have in past election.”

So, if elections were safe and reliable for years why the hubbub now? To avoid another “stolen” election that was proved not to be stolen? Or maybe to “SAVE”us from legions of non-citizens flooding the polls? Again? Or just maybe somethings else that happened a while back but that I’ve simply forgotten about. Like Boxer and Snowball in Orwell’s “Animal Farm”.

This administration will find any weasle room they can to do it anyway, like chatgpt checking them one by one. And the problem is, now that the court has signaled that they can do it at all, who would have standing to sue if they do, except the DOJ? How many "batches" have they thrown out already at the post office? Respectfully, I am fully worried about it. If you can crawl into a polling station, vote in person!

“On one issue, however, all nine of the justices seemed to agree: The ruling wouldn’t have much of an effect on the 2020 midterm elections.”

Shouldn’t that say “the 2026 midterm elections”?

Indeed, bad typo. Apologies and corrected.

Thank you! (No apology needed!)

The rump regime wasted taxpayer money to have this ‘Save’ database expanded to be used to stop

“voter fraud”, a problem that has zero impact on our elections…& SCOTUS approved this? There are more rabbit holes in this fantasyland than brain cells!!

Thank you Adam for reporting about all if this but most especially the SAVE decision, which put me at much more ease than the majority of headlines squawking how bad it was.

So what's the possibility of continued legal action against SAVE after the midterms? Surely this isn't the last word ... I hope.
