On November 18 (US time), President Donald Trump’s campaign asked the judge to declare Mr. Trump the winner in Pennsylvania, according to the news agency. Reuters. They argued that the Pennsylvania legislature, now controlled by the Republican Party, should have the power to choose the electors, who will formally choose the president.
Be persistent … demand
In the new lawsuit (the third amendment) filed in court, Trump’s team asked Judge Matthew Brann in Pennsylvania federal court to consider issuing an order stating that “the 2020 presidential election results have deficiencies and allow to the Pennsylvania legislature to select state voters. ” This request is part of a larger effort by Trump to adjust the September 11 lawsuit to challenge the election results in Pennsylvania.
Trump’s legal team, led by attorney Rudy Giuliani, also wants Judge Brann to allow the reuse of legal claims that were dropped from the lawsuit (second version) last weekend. These allegations suggested that Republican supervisors were prevented from monitoring the vote-by-mail process.
The new lawsuit also stated that 1.5 million absentee and mailed votes in seven Pennsylvania counties “should not be counted.” According to Politico, the new lawsuit is also close to charging Pennsylvania court judges with political bias.
Meanwhile on the social network “head on” on November 18, President Donald Trump expressed “incredible” when he shared an updated photo of the results of Wisconsin’s vote count at 3:42 am Wednesday. -eleven. Data taken from the newspaper New York Times, showing that Biden unexpectedly received 143,379 more votes, leaving Trump out of the lead.
In general, while the Trump team is suing in court, making a series of accusations and requests, Trump actively shares photos, videos of “proof” of suspected election fraud and even “chosen” statements. Each “coup” they launched created more ambiguity about the results of the US elections.
A series of deadlines
President Trump’s legal battle has intensified as he approaches a series of deadlines, especially that of confirming the results in the battlefield states – important milestones that may decide him. you can continue the game or stop it. The Financial Times has listed these deadlines.
First is the deadline to confirm the results of the elections in the state of Georgia on November 20. For November 23, this is the deadline for counties to submit all voting results in Pennsylvania, and the state is expected to confirm the results the same day. Michigan officials also rescheduled the meetings on November 23 to confirm the final results.
November 30 is the deadline for the state of Arizona to confirm the election results. December 1 is the deadline to confirm election results in Nevada and Wisconsin. It is unclear whether Trump will pass 6 “doors” in these 6 battlefield states or not.
Voters will then officially vote for the President and Congress of the United States to count the votes on December 14 and January 6, 2021, respectively. And if nothing changes, by January 20, 2021, the American people will clearly know who the leader of the country of the flag is in the next 4 years.
With such pressure, the Trump team is showing its willingness to do everything in its power to challenge the results. For example, Trump paid $ 3 million to recount votes in Milwaukee (Wisconsin’s largest county) and Dane County in Wisconsin, with time to complete the recount by Dec. 1. The Wisconsin Elections Commission says that if you want to recount this vote statewide, it costs $ 7.9 million.
According to the Washington Post, some Republican members said that even Trump’s attorney, Rudy Giuliani, considered the legal path to be “complicated.” They argue that Trump’s team is now resorting to a new tactic: delaying the completion of the vote count long enough to cast doubt on Biden’s victory.
68%
That’s the proportion of Republicans who say they fear this year’s US election will be “fraudulent,” and 16% of Democrats have similar concerns. The Reuters News poll released 11-18 also showed that roughly half of the Republican party believes Trump “won rightfully”, but the “stolen” election helped Biden win.
