The District of Columbia filed a legal brief on behalf of 22 blue states on Dec. 10 opposing a lawsuit request filed with the Supreme Court by the State of Texas, which challenges the election results in four battleground states.
The group represents all of the states with Democratic attorneys general not counting the four defendants: Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
“The people have chosen. But Texas, supported by 17 other states, asks this Court to overturn that choice,” the brief (pdf), signed by District of Columbia Solicitor General Loren Alikhan, states. “Amici States urge this Court to reject Texas’s last-minute attempt to throw out the results of an election decided by the people and securely overseen and certified by its sister states.”

gonna probably have to prove the election fraud in these states to the SCOTUS too in order to dispel any temptation for them to try to form a ruling that, well, we're not going to overturn an election outcome if there was no appreciable election fraud that actually happened (even if they agree that clearly the defendant states did not adhere to the US constitution)
because a lot of times judicial rulings end up revolving around damages done to the aggrieved party in the law suit
So probably going to be incumbent on Texas (and Pres. Trump) to prove they were indeed injured by election fraud in these named states where said fraud was facilitated by these states abandoning the strictures of the US constitution
