A state judge in Carson City, Nevada, ruled Friday against an effort by President Donald Trump’s campaign to overturn the results of the election in the Silver State based on irregularities — but said earlier in the week he expected the losing side in the case to appeal to the Supreme Court of Nevada.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported:
A District Court judge in Carson City on Friday ruled against an attempt by President Donald Trump’s campaign to overturn Nevada’s presidential election results, saying there was insufficient evidence to support fraud accusations.
Judge James Russell issued his order after hearing several hours of argument from attorneys representing both Trump and President-elect Joe Biden’s campaigns on Thursday.
Trump’s campaign echoed the president’s own calls of voter fraud and alleged that Clark County election staff failed to address 40,000 cases of double voting and thousands more illegal votes from the deceased or voters who do not live in Nevada.
Democrats argued the challenge did not identify a single voter who allegedly committed fraud, nor did it provide any other evidence to warrant overturning the will of the majority of Nevada’s 1.4 million voters.
On Thursday, Breitbart News reported, the judge heard arguments from both sides, including Democrats’ argument that dead voters’ mail-in ballots should count if the voters cast them before passing away.
The legal team representing Trump’s electors presented evidence of improper voting, but the Democrats argued that they had to show more specific evidence linking particular voters to particular actions.
The Trump team countered that if that were the standard, voter fraud could never be alleged or proven during an election.
The legal fight will likely continue,.

The US’s legal system is not lame,its criminal!
Unfortunately, to prove a specific individual committed voting fraud tends to take a year or so - with subpoena power and warrants. We have all kinds of anonymity protections in our elections, so you can say that two votes were cast under someone’s name, or that a vote was cast for someone who is ineligible, but it is not often you get the chance to prove an individual cast two votes intentionally without a confession.
That would make a great billboard right by the strip
challenge did not identify a single voter who allegedly committed fraud
Thats because single voters did not commit the fraud. The dumblecrat party did with manufactured ballots and miscounts.
I wonder if the democrats threat to create lists of Trump supporters is a way to make making a list of leftist judges in this election unpalatable to normal Americans ?
Because America should keep track of what Hess judges and deal with them when their reelection time comes up.
