President Donald Trump's campaign and Republican officials have filed nearly two dozen lawsuits since Election Day. It's an attempt to contest the results of the 2020 election. But according to Business Insider, none of the lawsuits so far have ended in victory. The campaign filed lawsuits and motions to intervene in cases in swing states Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania. They've notched zero victories, 19 cases where they've withdrawn or lost. Three cases remain pending. The Trump campaign had one win in Pennsylvania, where a judge ruled an issue over voter ID. verification. However, the state Supreme Court later overturned it.
Politico reports that a group of Michigan voters are suing President Donald Trump and the Trump presidential campaign. The plaintiffs are accusing the Trump campaign of "openly seeking to disenfranchise Black voters" through their legal challenges to the presidential election. According to Business Insider the lawsuit was filed on Friday in the US District Court for the District of Columbia. Trump has inserted himself into Michigan's election certification process. He has called on a GOP canvasser in Wayne County and inviting top GOP officials to the White House on Friday to discuss the election.
Vote counting continues into the night on Friday in Fulton County, Georgia. The state has 16 electoral votes, but it remains too close to call. IMAGES
