In a brief order, the court said the lawsuit fails because Michiganโs election results, including Joe Bidenโs 154,000-vote victory over Trump, were certified on Nov. 23, a week before the campaign filed an appellate brief. โBecause plaintiff failed to follow the clear law in Michigan relative to such matters, their action is moot,โ Judge Stephen Borrello said in a 2-1 order. There has been no evidence of widespread fraud in the 2020 election. More: 2020 election news
