Bush v Gore was a notable and shameful exception. They are ignoring Trump’s recent temper tantrum filings because he’s asking for way too much for even the crazy corrupt Alito and Thomas to abide. But don’t kid yourself, they will forsake what few principles they have in a heartbeat if it suits them.
If the one seat would make a difference in the majority then they would throw any principles aside. If the one seat isn’t going to make them any safer they will pretend to have standards.
The same way any case gets to them. The loser sues and the civil case gets appealed repeatedly.
I guess anything can get to the supreme court that way. The supreme court has been rejecting all election cases though
