Courts are the mere instruments of the law, and can will nothing. When they are said to exercise a discretion, it is a mere legal discretion, a discretion to be exercised in discerning the course prescribed by law; and, when that is discerned, it is the duty of the Court to follow it.

Democracy only has substance if there's the rule of law. That is, if people believe that the votes are going to be counted, and they are counted.
