ATLANTA — Judge Timothy Batten in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia has dismissed the lawsuit. A similar suit in Michigan was also dismissed this morning. Powell will appeal to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta, which dismissed a similar suit brought by attorney Lin Wood this weekend.
Uh, did you read the complaint, "Your Honor"? That's still in debate. They alledge that the reported number of people in fact DID NOT vote for Biden, in fact that Biden votes are less than Trump's. So if they're right, then denying them the opportunity to prove it IS substituting your judgement for that of the voters. Dumbshit, er, Your Honor.

At this point - with ZERO court wins... you’re the troll.
Non-sequitur argument. Lin is a subversive. If you are unable or unwilling to see that on your own, then there is nothing I can state that will prove such to you. The man is instructing the gullible and those who are caught up in emotion rather than reason to give control of the country to the communists.
ALL OF THESE SCUM ARE “ds judges” AND NEED TO GO AWAY. Permanently...
I don’t know, but it will be obvious when it hits.
I don’t think it has been filed yet.
Look to Gen. Flynn.
Hoe the hell are they “helping” President Trump - or this country - by telling Georgians not to vote? You want to explain that to me? You seem to have a disconnect where logic is concerned.
True.
Like the line I first heard from Tony Robbins (apologies for the source)
“They are people who have confidence without competence.”
Like my nephew when he was about thirteen rolling his eyes at how thick headed I was to not understand that man made global warming was causing all the Earth’s problems. I was just an old fool.
A great line: Quick! Hire a teenager while he still knows everything.
its now the SC and then its martial law...
This is what the asses are saying as their rationale.
“Sidney Powell’s Trump lawsuit is the stuff of ‘mythos’ and has no basis in reality, Georgia officials said in bid for dismissal”
(article excerpt)
“Much like the mythological ‘kraken’ monster after which Plaintiffs have named this lawsuit, their claims of election fraud and malfeasance belong more to the kraken’s realm of mythos than they do to reality,” said a Saturday joint filing by the defendants, including Gov. Brian Kemp.
The filing, in the US District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, is the latest in a back-and-forth spat between Powell and election officials. It’s a direct response to a 1,000-page filing made late last week by Powell, who was once on President Donald Trump’s legal team, and Lin Wood.
Powell called it a “kraken.” It included screenshots of Facebook conversations alleging voter fraud, affidavits of “concerned citizens” following ballot-carrying trucks, and allegations that the state’s digital voting system was rigged. They alleged that Georgia’s election results shouldn’t have been certified pending a full investigation.
That filing included everything other than facts, said the electors on Saturday.
Georgia said that Powell’s lawsuit was akin to asking “the State Election Board to ‘de-certify’ the results of the election and replace the presidential electors for Joe Biden (who were selected by a majority of Georgia voters by popular vote as provided by state law) with presidential electors for President Trump.”
They added: “Their claims would be extraordinary if true, but they are not.”
In the 53-page filing, Georgia elections officials stepped through a blistering point-by-point rebuttal of the fraud alleged by Powell and Wood, saying the federal election had been “the most secure in history,” including in Georgia.
In response to claims that Hugo Chavez, the deceased former president of Venezuela, had interfered in the Georgia election, officials said they’re just repeating conspiracy theories, not facts.
“The Plaintiffs - blinded by either willful ignorance or a lack of basic knowledge of Georgia elections - are incorrect,” Saturday’s filing said.
Meanwhile, President Donald Trump spoke on Saturday evening at a rally in Georgia in support of Sens. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, both of whom are keen to keep their offices in the state’s run-off election.”

Exactly. Libs keep complaining, only 5 weeks post election, that Trump doesn't have conclusive proof, all the while destroying the proof, and claiming he should have filed earlier???
Telling Georgians not to vote in the senate run-off pretty much negates all of his Trump support. In case you did not get the memo, President Trump is not impressed with Wood’s “advice” to not vote.
RE: Non-sequitur argument. Lin is a subversive.
Why does it not follow?
Trump saw the light, why, based on Lin Wood’s actions today does it not similarly apply to him?
If you wish to argue that the evidence he presents are based on flimsy material, I am willing to listen. But to call him a snake in the grass requires more knowledge than you are privy to.
The weasels in the lower courts are afraid of the Kraken- weasels are tough critters, but no match for Krakens
Common Sense 101 already had the towel bundled up in a ball, ready to throw as soon as this thread was posted.
Lack of standing by the plaintiff.
Love the sarcasm - sad but on point.
“Look to Gen. Flynn.”
My heart is beating 1,000 miles an hour as time is running out. But I still have hope...I for one refuse to give up.
I’d like to see the bank accounts of all these judges.
Wood’s and Powell’s federal suits were a side show. Wood was suing in his own right as an ordinary voter, and clearly lacked standing. Powell was representing elector nominees who lacked standing to bring the constitutional claims but may have had standing to bring an election contest under Georgia law. However, she chose to file in federal court for some reason, and the federal court clearly has no jurisdiction over a state-law election challenge between parties from the same state.
The real case (if it is ever actually filed) is the Trump Campaign’s election challenge in state court. The problem is that it looks like they may not have even filed it yet, and time’s wasting. The challenge may be moot after tomorrow’s “safe harbor” deadline, and will certainly meet after the electors have voted on 12/14.
only SCOTUS matters, not that she or Lin Wood will win there, or will they even take the case
even had she won in a lower court, it would have been appealed by the opposition
