Here’s the opening paragraph of the opinion. Link is here.
On January 4, 2021, two days before the Vice President
of the United States was set to preside over a joint session of the United States Congress to certify the results of the 2020 general election, Election Integrity Project California, Inc. (“EIPCa”) and 10 candidates who had lost their races for political office filed this lawsuit seeking to decertify the
results of the 2020 election in California due to alleged
irregularities and to declare unconstitutional California’s
vote-by-mail election system. After two and a half years of
litigation, including a previous appeal to this court, the
district court entered an order dismissing the plaintiffs’
claims. The district court concluded that even if all of the
plaintiffs’ allegations were true, the plaintiffs failed to state plausible claims of constitutional violations in the
administration of California’s elections. We agree, and we
affirm the district court’s order dismissing the plaintiffs’
claims without leave to amend.
