Can you translate that into English? Does this mean that the fraudulently-filed absentee ballot accounting that was used to certify the election will be part of the case?

Maybe I can clear it up. While fraud was not a part of the petition. Everything encompassed by election fraud would also be an election 'mistake', 'irregularity', 'false certification', etc. As a practical matter, the judge is saying that you can enter evidence of fraud because if you can establish fraud, you have also established your other claims as well.

When Foreman offered to prove fraud, he was saying that the Republicans have evidence to prove far more than what the original petition claimed; so much so, that it could right be alleged that intentional, or even criminal, fraud was committed.
