The lawsuit claims Texas and its voters were treated unfairly by changes in election laws in four states because the changes skewed overall election results. The states are Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Georgia. An error in presidential election results would also mean the vice president pick is flawed. And because the vice president is often the tiebreaker for which party holds the Senate majority, this would affect Texas’s representation in the Senate.
Attorney Robert Henneke, General Counsel of Texas Public Policy Foundation, called this a “game-changer” and a new constitutional argument that hasn’t been raised in any 2020 election filings.
