Trump team adviser Boris Epshteyn said the Trump team expects to take more legal action in Pennsylvania, and that the Dec. 14 Electoral College vote does not mean the “legal battle” is over.
I don’t want to go beyond the legal actions that we’re about to take, but I just want to tell you that there are lawsuits that have been filed – they haven’t been argued in the Supreme Court, they haven’t gone to the Supreme Court, they haven’t gone to the Supreme Court,” Epshteyn said on “War Room:Pandemic” on Dec. 17. argued, haven’t gone to the Supreme Court – will continue to move forward and are very important.”
He said (further) legal action would address some of the issues raised by the Supreme Court, including the Supreme Court’s statement that Texas does not have legal standing to sue Pennsylvania.
The Supreme Court on Dec. 11 dismissed Texas’ case against four swing states (Pennsylvania as well as Joe, Wisconsin and Michigan), saying Texas had no legal standing. Two Supreme Court justices who agreed to take the case issued separate statements refuting the ruling, saying the Supreme Court had a duty to hear the case.
The Trump team’s legal battle in the swing states continues, with “competing electors” (“alternative electors”) emerging from the Electoral College voting process on Dec. 14. (slate).
Eppstein said the Dec. 14 Electoral College vote did not mean the end of the “legal battle. He cited the 1960 election between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy as an example, saying that Hawaii’s vote count was completed between the Dec. 14 Electoral College meeting and the Jan. 6 joint session of Congress.
In the recently concluded December 14 Electoral College vote, in addition to the state-designated Electoral College, Republican electors in the six swing states of Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, Michigan and Wisconsin, as well as New Mexico, announced their “alternative elector” votes for Trump.
In this case, there are seven groups of “head-to-head electors” (“alternative electors”). Each of these electors would cast their own ballot – a certification – and then both parties would send the certification to Congress, where the votes would be counted in a joint session on Jan. 6.
John Eastman, a professor of law at Chapman University School of Law, told the network, “In each of these states, there are lawsuits pending that challenge the outcome of the election. If the lawsuit ultimately proves successful, then Trump electors who have met and completed their voting can certify those votes and have them counted in a joint session of Congress on Jan. 6.”
In addition to the Pennsylvania situation, Eppstein also mentioned Wisconsin. He said we are also filing a legal action against Wisconsin. The state used the Communist virus epidemic to declare a “lockdown” and then allowed mail-in ballots without identification.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court on Dec. 14 rejected a lawsuit by the Trump team to overturn the state’s election results. But the court also ordered that the closure could not be declared on the basis of public health restrictions from the Communist virus outbreak, after state officials argued strongly for the closure.
The Trump team is working to confirm the specifics of Wisconsin’s abuse of the closure order, Epstein said.
“Then we’ll go to court,” he said, “and there’s another aspect that’s critical, which is the state legislature investigating this abuse and election fraud.” “Let’s not forget that the margin between the two candidates in Wisconsin is only 20,000 votes.”
