Trump still refuses to accept his electoral defeat
A judge denied that the state of Pennsylvania filed a lawsuit campaign because President Donald Trump has sought to revoke millions of votes that have been mailed in the state, which is seen as a battleground between candidates.
Judge Matthew Bran said the lawsuit, which is based on allegations of wrongdoing, “has no legal basis.”
The move paves the way for Pennsylvania to confirm Biden’s victory next week, leading by more than 80,000 votes.
This is Donald Trump’s latest blow as he attempts to turn his defeat in the November 3 presidential election into a victory.
He refused to admit the loss and claimed widespread election fraud without providing proof of it.
Trump’s lack of concessions has hampered the process that generally follows US elections.
He is expected to outperform Biden Trump by 306 votes to 232 votes for the Trump of the electoral college votes that decides who will be president, well in excess of the 270 votes needed to win.
The Trump campaign has missed a number of issues that question the election results, and its recent efforts are focused on preventing the undecided states that gave Biden the victory from validating the results, a necessary step for Biden to be formally declared. election winner.
Pennsylvania judge handles scathing verdict
Judge Bran wrote in his ruling that the Trump campaign had attempted “to deny nearly seven million voters their right to vote.”
He said his court “was presented with false legal arguments without legal basis and alleged charges.”
He wrote that the judge says: “In the United States, this cannot justify depriving a voter of the right to vote, much less denying all voters in the sixth largest place in the state in terms of population?”
The Trump campaign went on to argue that the state violated the guarantee of equal protection under the law guaranteed in the United States Constitution, as some of the Democratic-run counties allowed voters to correct errors on their ballots, while the Republican-run counties did not.
But Judge Bran rejected this claim on the merits of his decision, saying it was “like a Frankenstein monster” whose pieces were “randomly attached.” Even if that accusation were the basis of a case, he said, the Trump campaign solution would have gone too far.
Few Republicans asked the president to grant the results, but in the wake of the judge’s ruling, Pennsylvania Republican Senator Pat Tommy said Trump had exhausted all legal options in the state and urged him to accept the result.
As for the personal lawyer of Rudy Giuliani, President of Trump, he said in a statement that he would appeal the decision: “It appears that today’s decision will help us in our strategy to quickly reach the Supreme Court of the United States.”

Trump supporters are staging a protest march in front of the state building in Georgia, in which the Trump campaign called for a recount.
What is the situation in other states that are considered judicial battlegrounds?
Also on Saturday, the Trump campaign called for another recount in Georgia, just one day after a manual recount confirmed Biden’s victory.
The campaign said the process “must include signature matching and other important safeguards.”
In the state of another swing won by Biden, is the state of Michigan, Republican officials wrote to the state Elections Council, asking to postpone the session to ratify the election results for two weeks.
They called for a review of the presidential election in the largest county, which includes Detroit, after Trump’s camp challenged the results.
But the Michigan State Council was quick to object, saying delays and scrutiny weren’t allowed by law.
And in Wisconsin, election officials accused Trump supporters of blocking the state’s vote count. They said that in some cases, Trump campaign watchers had opposed every vote, intentionally slowing down the process.
If the recount process was not completed by Senior’s December / January 1 deadline to ratify Wisconsin at Allantij, the way will be open for Camp Trump to follow suit.
It should be noted that Biden is ahead of Trump in state by more than 20,000 votes.

Election watchers discuss some of the procedures that precede the counting of votes in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin.
Why is electoral certification important?a؟
When Americans vote in a presidential election, they are in effect voting in competition within their states, not at the national level.
They are voting for state electors, each of whom will cast one vote for the president. These voters generally follow the will of the voters; in Michigan, for example, they must vote for all Joe Biden, because he won the popular vote in the state.
States get the same number of votes they have in the United States Congress, that is, in the House and the Senate.
