Donald Trump Challenges The US Supreme Court To Overturn Wisconsin’s Election Results
According to the latest reports, U.S. President Donald Trump’s campaign has asked the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday to take its failed lawsuit challenging election results in swing-state Wisconsin.
Donald Trump had lost the state to Democrat Joe Biden by approximately twenty-one thousand votes. The president’s campaign had filed a lawsuit with the state Supreme Court seeking to disqualify over 221000 ballots in Dane, and Milwaukee countries, the state’s two most densely Democratic counties.
As per the reports, Trump aimed to disqualify the absentee ballots cast early and in-person, stating that there wasn’t a proper written request made for the ballots, where the absentee ballots cast by people who claimed indefinitely confined status, absentee ballots collected by poll workers at Madison parks, and absentee ballots where clerks filled in missing information on ballot envelopes.
However, the state Supreme Court rejected the lawsuit, ruling 4-3 that Trump’s challenge to the voters who were indefinitely confined was without merit and the rest of the claims arrived too late.
Trump’s campaign is now asking the U.S. Supreme Court to declare that Wisconsin’s election has failed and that they should allow the Republican-controlled Legislature to appoint the state’s electors.
Trump and his allies have suffered dozens of defeats in Wisconsin and also across the country in lawsuits that rely on unsubstantiated claims of widespread fraud and election abuse.
It is said that Trump had questioned the U.S. Supreme Court last week to reverse a trio of Pennsylvania Supreme Court rulings that deal with the mail-in ballots and should allow the Pennsylvania General Assembly to pick its state of electors.
