Nothing is funnier than an appellate court ordering a state official to do their job.  And if she says, "Let's not and say we did", what can they do?  Judicial activism at its worst.  The reason most intelligent courts decline to involve themselves in micro-managing the election process is that if the official involved is recalcitrant, they look impotent, and judges do not like looking impotent.  It is why the Supreme Court stopped the vote counting in Florida 8 years ago.  It was easy, direct, and enforceable.  But to order officials to "do their job" effectively is a complete waste of time.  And they know it and so does the Ohio GOP.
