Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody signed on Monday to a brief aimed at convincing the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a ruling that allowed Pennsylvania elections officials to count some late-arriving absentee ballots.
Moody was one of 10 Republican attorneys general who filed the brief in a challenge to a decision by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court that allowed counting absentee ballots received up to three days after the Nov. 3 election.
The case is one of a flurry of lawsuits filed by Republicans alleging potential ballot fraud in various states. President Donald Trump has fueled the allegations for months, including in recent days as results showed Democrat Joe Biden winning the presidential election.
The GOP attorneys general in Monday’s brief said the decision by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court “exacerbated the risks of ballot fraud” in the key swing state.
The brief was filed by Moody and the attorneys general of Missouri, Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, South Dakota and Texas.

Ashley Moody, don’t embarrass yourself. If you haven’t taken Trump’s money yet, stand down. Leave the whoring to Bondi.

It’s one thing to challenge the election results on legal grounds, quite another to continue Trump’s war on democracy. Maybe this “fake news” about the totals will be his last big “hoax.”
Ashley, you’ve distinguished yourself. And today, the high court will hear arguments to destroy the Affordable Care Act. You signed Florida up for that, too. There is no GOP replacement, never has been. You must be so proud.
If it goes down, there are 100,000 plus recipients in heavily Cuban CD 26. They helped Trump take Florida. You’ll have to explain why you took this “socialist” program away from them. It’s okay, they’ll understand.

It is really unseemly for person of Ashley Moody’s intellect to sink low enough to become a partisan hack. Pam Bondi pursued similar partisan forays in other states. Remember her involvement in the action to reduce pollution flowing to Chesapeake Bay–on the side of the polluters, of course. She certainly fooled the editorial board to the TB Times. If she seeks a second term, it won’t go as easily.
