An attempt to stop Pennsylvania from finalizing President-elect Joe Biden's victory in the state has been rejected by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Congressman Mike Kelly spearheaded the effort and says the case is still alive.

Kelly says the Republican lawsuit questioning the constitutionality of mail-in votes cast during the 2020 presidential election is not over yet. He says that a temporary injunctive relief was denied.

"Now states can go ahead and appoint their electors, but it does not mean that our lawsuit was thrown out," said Kelly.

Kelly continues to take the position that the law allowing mail-in voting was not completed properly and therefore is unconstitutional.

"Then all of a sudden it comes up, well, you're disenfranchising people. Well, what about the people who voted the right way; the way that was always accepted and was a part of Pennsylvania law, so are we saying to them now that they've been disenfranchised," questioned Kelly.

But Kelly says he is not attempting to throw out the votes of his constituents. He says that is for the courts to decide.

"I don't want to deny anybody any vote that they took in good faith following what they believe the law to be at that time, but I do want to make sure we are taking a look at this -- so what harm was done, and what can we do to repair it," said Kelly.

It's not clear what chance this lawsuit has after Tuesday's Supreme Court decision.
