Trump's 'Appeal Lawsuit' Dismissed in Michigan and Georgia Trial Courts
[Asia Economy Reporter Seulgina Jo] U.S. President Donald Trump has filed lawsuits contesting the November 3 presidential election vote count, but they have been repeatedly dismissed.
According to AP News and others on the 5th (local time), lawsuits filed by the Trump presidential campaign in key battleground states Michigan and Georgia, citing issues in the vote counting process, were not accepted in the first trial.
Cynthia Stevens, a judge at the Michigan first trial court, issued an oral statement dismissing the Trump campaign's request to halt the vote count during the hearing that day. The written ruling will be issued on the 6th.
