The Supreme Court wasted no time in dismissing Sidney Powell’s election fraud petitions and they offered no comments as to why they dismissed them all, which left some Republicans irked.

Powell, along with some lawyers, filed two mandamus petitions in late December contesting the election results in Arizona and Wisconsin. Former President Donald Trump lost to current President Joe Biden in both states but Powell claimed that the only reason Trump lost was because there was tampering of the election results in those locations.

Despite Powell’s claims and petitions to investigate the possibility of election tampering, her request was denied by the court with no explanation.

The petitions also came with questions that the court was asked to answer, but the justices refused to answer them as well.

The questions revolved around the capability of presidential electors to challenge the results of an election for fraud and illegality when their candidate loses.
