WASHINGTON — A federal judge on Saturday dismissed a lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump's campaign in Pennsylvania, saying it contained "strained legal argument without merit."
U.S. District Court Judge Matthew Brann turned down the request for an injunction, dealing another blow to Trump's hopes of invalidating the election's results.
In his 37-page ruling, Brann said the Trump campaign asked him to “disenfranchise almost seven million voters” and said he could not find any case in which a plaintiff “has sought such a drastic remedy in the contest of an election.”
With such a request, the judge said, one might expect compelling legal argument “and factual proof of rampant corruption.” Instead, Brann added, “this court has been presented with strained legal arguments without merit and speculative accusations.”

Isn’t that what we heard over and over on here about Durham?
The SOS recommended that each county set up a process for curing ballots, but it was left to the individual counties as to whether or not to do it as Boockvar lacked the authority to mandate it. The counties in which those two ballots were cast could have set up such a process but did not.
LOL if “ALL” the evidence was presented in lower courts, why is everybody here keep posting they want Sidney Powell to show the evidence?
Can’t have it both ways.
On top of that by the time the suit moves to SCOTUS, more evidence is allowed to evolve and will evolve.
YES! If NEW evidence surfaces during the period (between lower court hearing and the case reaching SCOTUS), why would SCOTUS not want to hear it?
I don’t believe the Trump legal team has said they have finished gathering evidence of fraud.
Isn't any clearer. You said 7 million votes were fraud. That's the total number of votes from Pennsylvania.
Apparently. They want the election invalidated.
Yeah, I botched the wording. Let me try again:
“The problem, judge, is that evidence shows widespread fraud among the 7 million votes but exactly whose vote was corrupted is impossible to know as this point because the fraudulent ballots are mixed in with the valid ballots.
Unless you can quantify the level of fraud then no judge is going to disenfranchise millions of legal voters.
