WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court on Friday dismissed a long-shot bid by President Donald Trump and the state of Texas to overturn the results in four states won by Democrat Joe Biden, blocking the president s legal path to reverse his reelection loss.
The court s unsigned order was short, and it denied Texas s request to sue Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin over how they conducted their elections. Texas has not shown it has a legal interest in the manner in which another state conducts its elections, the order said. It dismissed all pending motions about the case.
