Michigan Senate nominee John James, a Republican, established a legal defense fund this week with the Republican National Committee as he contests the results of his race against Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.) in the Nov. 3 election.
A Federal Election Commission filing shows Jamess campaign and the committee launching the James Legal Fund, which will be based out of Beverly, Massachusetts.
Bradley Crate, President Donald Trumps campaign treasurer, is listed as the treasurer of the new fund.
An email sent to the address listed on the filing wasnt immediately returned.
James and his campaign last week alleged election irregularities after some news outlets called the race for Peters.
James said in a statement released Nov. 12 that fair elections are at the foundation of a representative democracy.
While Senator Peters is currently ahead, I have deep concerns that millions of Michiganders may have been disenfranchised by a dishonest few who cheat, he wrote.
When this process is complete, I will of course accept the results and the will of the people, but at this time there is enough credible evidence to warrant an investigation to ensure that elections were conducted in a transparent, legal and fair manner.
Mark Brewer, a former state Democratic chairman accused of malfeasance by the campaign, told The Epoch Times that he was present at the TCF Center in Detroit as a poll observer but didnt bring anyone with him to disrupt the process.
Peters told supporters in Rochester on Nov. 5 that the allegations were sad and pathetic.
They lost. Its very clear, he said.
According to the unofficial results, Peters beat James by about 85,000 votes.

We have another fighter...RonDeSantis/John James 2024?
he was ahead on election night. this is another al franken special. hopefully the lawsuit will succeed.
Good for John James as he likely did win - it is that rotten here in MIchigulag. Did you hear about the Vice Mayor of Flint, another AA Dem who voted for Trump and announced it publicly? NO, you probably didn’t hear about him.
He;s just NOW launching the lawsuit?? WHAT?
