The Republican National Committee (RNC) has filed 73 lawsuits on election issues during the 2022 midterm election cycle, according to its chair.
RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel confirmed that the committee filed its 73rd lawsuit of 2022 last week, against officials in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
“The RNC has filed a new lawsuit against Kalamazoo, MI. Michiganders deserve election transparency, and we are going to court to get it. This is our 73rd case of election integrity litigation this cycle with more to come,” she wrote on Twitter.
Some advocacy groups hailed the bevy of legal challenges.
“After the shortcomings of the last election, a proactive and pre-emptive legal strategy is critical to the election integrity voters deserve in 2022, 2024, and beyond,” Michael Bars, executive director of the Election Transparency Initiative, told Fox News on Oct. 24, adding that there have been “significant strides” to try to bolster voters’ trust in the U.S. election system after allegations of fraud in 2020.
The lawsuits come after widespread complaints about the security of the 2020 election in which former President Donald Trump and his allies said there was significant fraud in key battleground states.
The lawsuits are part of a “multimillion-dollar investment into building an election integrity operations infrastructure that draws on its legal, political, data and communications resources,” RNC spokesperson Gates McGavick told the outlet. It reported that the six dozen lawsuits were filed in 20 states.
In recent days, the RNC has had some success in court. A New York judge recently struck down a law that would have added noncitizens to voter rolls.
A court in Michigan also found that Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, a Democrat, updated an election manual to impose new restrictions on poll observers and challengers without going through the correct rulemaking process. Court of Claims Judge Brock Swartzle ruled that Benson’s office must either remove a May manual or amend specific sections that he said violate state and federal law.

I heard that votes were already being flipped in Texas.
You should have started MUCH earlier...
But half the GOP says Trump is a threat for being an election denier.
The Republicans need to have legal teams in place to deal with the “you already voted” scam seen widely in 2020. There must be lawyers who go to court on the spot to have the fraudulent mail in ballots pulled from the count so that the intended ballot is counted.
Yes, indeed. Maybe 72 of the 73 lawsuits, won’t be finished for 10 years. By then, we probably won’t even have a country left.
Then, after the elections the judges will say that the lawsuits are premature until the Secretaries of State certify the results.
Then, after the elections are certified the judges will say its too late to file the lawsuits.

About time that we started really winning on election integrity issues.
Should have started what?
Probably right.
Yep. The courts’ Pontius Pilate routine.
First dismiss the claims as not being ripe.
Then, rule that the case is dismissed due to laches.
If all else fails, rule that nobody has standing.
Good, but she should have done this in 2020.
DOJ wii get right on this.
Expect to hear about an “ongoing investigation” until June of 2054 . . .
