The Trump campaign’s lawsuit seeking to block Pennsylvania from certifying its election results was officially dismissed in federal court Saturday, effectively ending the Trump campaign’s central attempt to contest President-elect Joe Biden’s win through the courts and paving the way for the state to certify their votes on Monday.
The Trump campaign, led by attorney Rudy Giuliani, challenged Pennsylvania’s presidential election results because the campaign objected to the fact that some Pennsylvania counties allowed voters to fix defects with their mail-in ballots to ensure their vote was counted, while others did not.
Though the campaign has made a number of general allegations about voter fraud and alleged improprieties with how Pennsylvania’s votes were counted, the campaign did not provide any specific evidence of voter fraud in the lawsuit, and Giuliani specifically said during a hearing, “This is not a fraud case.”
U.S. District Judge Matthew Brann dismissed the case Saturday with prejudice and decried the Trump campaign’s “strained legal arguments without merit and speculative accusations,” which are “unsupported by evidence.”
The Trump campaign’s legal argument, “like Frankenstein’s Monster, has been haphazardly stitched together,” Brann wrote, and the judge said the state’s decision to allow counties to let voters fix their mail-in ballots is “perfectly rational.”

Appointed by... ...Barack Obama
Obama appointee.
For now, we politely go through the Constitutional motions. All the way up to SCOTUS.
If that fails, then... we shall see.
But the people of this country have seen behind the curtain now. We will not be lorded over by perfumed princes and criminal cartels.
That includes the fake media cartel.
The Rats think this was it? The only thing to be filed?
Next week will be an eye opener for them.
Rocket Docket.
Say hello to my five new friends.
“” Brann wrote, and the judge said the state’s decision to allow counties to let voters fix their mail-in ballots is “perfectly rational.””
Whether it is “perfectly rational.” or not should not be the standard, what does the law passed by the legislature say?”
What a complete crock of BS. Did you not even read this before posting?
Wrong Headline.....Should say “Trump Campaign’s Biggest Election Lawsuit now goes to the Supreme Court”.....
Rope-a-Dope. The fraud lawsuits haven’t been filed yet.
This was entirely expected. It will go the the Supreme Court.
Justice Alito will not be happy about the PA officials ignoring his order to segregate ALL the ballots that came in after 8pm election day.
The filthy prick communist are NOT going to steal the election. Joe pedophile puppet Biden will NEVER be president.
Here’s a sampling of this author’s writing (no bias intended, eh?):
Just keep slamming the Rat cage.
I believe the applicable law has clause where you can’t sever it..unlike Obama law that did not have the clause
All the evidence in the world won’t see the light of day if it must be adjudicated by corrupt judges.
I see they are being faulted for acting too quickly against hard deadlines that allow for nothing else.
Here we have angry Americans whose *very* legitimate grievances over the integrity of our last presidential election are being swept aside and ignored with the complicity of hostile judges, a Pravda media, and Big Tech. Things can get ugly.
So if what’s-his-name steals a few million dollars from a local school district do the local newspapers say “wealthy business man disputes claims his fortune was illegally obtained”?
No, if you stole it you go to jail.
Treason against the republic deserves death.
