The office of Jay Ashcroft, a Republican, filed an amicus brief in a U.S. Supreme Court
case that could give state lawmakers the power to set election rules, draw congressional maps without any review by state courts, and potentially refuse to certify presidential election results.
Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft has lined up behind a U.S. Supreme Court case legal experts believe could radically reshape how federal elections are conducted by handing more power to state legislatures and blocking state courts from intervening.
Ashcroft announced last week that his office had filed an amicus brief in support of Republicans in North Carolina who are asking the nation’s highest court to restore a Congressional map that was rejected as a partisan gerrymander by that state’s Supreme Court.

For sale: God, guns and separatism in the American Redoubt
Montana real estate has boomed since the pandemic began as remote work enables people to live where they want. Some realtors are angling toward a different migration motivation: God, guns, and separatism.

“SAFE HAVEN’
The term “American Redoubt” was coined by novelist and survivalist blogger James Wesley, Rawles (he added the comma) about a decade ago, but the idea of conservative-leaning separatist movements in the inland Northwest is older than that.
More than a century ago, residents of eastern Washington and northern Idaho who felt ignored by state leaders farther west and south clamored for their own state. In recent years, some of those continuing movements have given the proposed new state names like “Lincoln” and “Liberty.” Over the last decade, Republicans in eastern Washington have put forth bills almost annually calling for citizens on the dry side of the Cascades to secede.”
