Seventeen states filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court supporting the Texas election lawsuit on Wednesday.
The Texas election lawsuit aimed to delay the appointment of presidential electors in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia and Wisconsin over allegations of violation to voting laws.
Texas filed the lawsuit on Monday, arguing that the said states were in violation of the Electors Clause of the Constitution since they changed the rules through the courts or executive actions but not the state legislatures, reported Breitbart.
According to Fox News, the election lawsuit was supported by Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, and West Virginia and they were led by Missouri.
