> Ultimately this court's decision is a win for democracy

We've now learned that the supreme court will take up a case concerning the "Independent legislature theory" which, if affirmed, would allow state legislatures to unilaterally overrule their constituent's votes in both state and federal elections.

I can't wait to see the majority maintain its staunch pro-democracy stance that it takes in this case in the terms to come.
