state judge on Thursday dismissed the Trump campaign's lawsuit seeking to halt the counting of absentee ballots in Michigan.

Court of Claims Judge Cynthia Stephens said during a hearing she would be rejecting the campaign's lawsuit, filed the previous day, that alleged Republican officials had been denied access to video of ballot drop boxes.

Absolutely. I thought the MI SOS’s comment was notable because a lot of them are saying “Count all the votes.” We would not agree with her about what she would deem to be “valid votes.”

What happens when the media calls one of these states for Biden and declares him President Elect?? We know it’s coming.

If Trump could get just one highly-suspect state to do a total recount under cameras and in a highly-scrutinized fashion, the cheating rats would be exposed for all time! Then many other states would come under scrutiny as well.

"some of these judges are OBVIOUSLY corrupt. Why are they never removed?"

Look at the population around us. Nearly all of those who aren't actively participating in crime or corruption are focusing only on being entertained.

Then when it’s over, he can officially “come out of the closet” if you know what I mean, heh, heh.

No vacancies in the slate of judges.

Good!

I like your writing style and thoughts. But that approach may backfire against Trump and he’ll be seen as a tyrant taking military control, especially if he is not backed up by calls from the Senate or House to stop this injustice. I’m not surprised the DOJ is doing nothing... that is what they typically do. If Trump doesn’t get any kind of support he will be tared and feathered even by his own people.

-- Demonstrate? How exactly? Wouldn't there have to be a dispute about the electors? Or what? --

The constitution anticipates that a state or states may fail to send electoral ballots, or send conflicting sets. If THAT dispute results in inability to choose a POTUS, then the Congress picks.

The law likewise allows Congress to dispute a states electoral ballots. This has happened recently, John Kerry moved for this recently. Congress rejected the motion, but it (Congress) can reject a state's slate of electors.

Here in Michigan I heard a radio personality’s description of a judge who always lets Dem types go without a problem and always rules against business and individual freedom defendants. Turns out she was the one in question.

Said to be perhaps the most leftist biased judge in the state.

Maybe the Michigan and Wisconsin GOP should formally challenge the vote counts at some point. We have videos of very suspicious activity. My guess is that SCOTUS doesn’t want to get involved. If the House decides each state gets one vote, as you know.
