Here is where things stand today on the pending Trump/GOP legal challenges:
- Nevada Rs (Trump campaign not a party) filed in federal court last night challenging computer software to verify signatures and claiming media wasn't allowed to observe counting https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/7325901/11-5-20-Stokke-v-Cegavske-Complaint.pdf
- Nevada Rs (Trump campaign not a party) filed in federal court last night challenging computer software to verify signatures and claiming media wasn't allowed to observe counting https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/7325901/11-5-20-Stokke-v-Cegavske-Complaint.pdf
- The new NV case repeats a Trump campaign allegation from yest. of people casting ballots who weren't eligible to vote in the state, but note the case isn't asking to invalidate ballots — at most, they're asking for absentee ballots to be verified by people and not a computer
- The Commonwealth Court of PA is holding arguments right now (no remote access, unfortunately) in PA Republicans' case seeking to block counties from allowing absentee voters with deficient ballots to cast provisional ballots to "cure" votes https://twitter.com/ZoeTillman/status/1323821607966617605
- The Commonwealth Court of PA yest. ordered that PA segregate absentee ballots where the voter didn't cure a missing ID by Nov. 9 — that's pending a ruling on the merits of Trump campaign's arg that the SoS was wrong to extend the voter ID cure deadline from Nov. 9 to Nov. 12
- The Trump campaign has a pending motion to intervene in the case before SCOTUS about whether PA can count absentee ballots that arrived between Nov. 4-6 — note that the vote tallies reported out of PA so far do not include the post-Election Day ballots at issue
- The PA Supreme Court hasn't ruled yet on whether to take up Philadelphia's challenge to a lower court order that granted the Trump campaign's request that poll watchers be allowed to stand physically closer to the counting operation
- There's also a case brought yest. by Republicans in Northampton County, PA, appealing an order that denied their challenge to county election officials disclosing the ID of cancelled ballots during pre-canvassing — don't have more details based on the filings avail. so far
