President Donald Trump and the GOP have filed dozens of lawsuits since Election Day. They are looking to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Business Insider have sued in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. They've notched zero victories. There are 38 cases where they've withdrawn or lost. There are four cases pending.

Chris Christie Former Governor of the State of New Jersey Friday, the Supreme Court declined to hear the GOP-backed lawsuit brought by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton due to lack of standing. In addition to Paxton, 17 state attorneys general and 126 Congressional Republicans had signed an amicus brief backing the lawsuit.

It's a lack of evidence and a lack of any type of legal theory that makes any sense."
