Because the Electoral College is set to meet in three weeks, Applicant
respectfully submits there is no time for a more formal approach to the
issues listed herein. In Bush v. Gore, 531 U.S. 98 at 98 (2000), this
Honorable Court accepted an emergency stay application as a full petition:
"Governor Bush and Richard Cheney, Republican Candidates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency, filed an emergency application for a stay of this mandate. On December 9, we granted the application, treated the application as a petition for a writ of certiorari, and granted certiorari."
In Purcell v. Gonzales, 127 S. Ct. 5 (2006), this Honorable Court construed
an application for a stay as a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari, and then granted
Certiorari in an election dispute - two weeks before election day - regarding
alleged unconstitutional voter registration conditions. Applicant respectfully
submits this application be treated the same.
