Can You Hack an Election in 7 Minutes?
The U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals has given the Trump campaign a legal win in granting them an expedited review of their appeal by a Pennsylvania court, according to Jenna Ellis a Trump campaign lawyer.
According to the order, Trump’s “motion for emergency expedited review is granted at the direction of the court.”
Their brief now needs to be filed by 4 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 23. “The court will advise if oral argument desired,” it said.
Pennsylvania’s 67 counties are scheduled to certify their election results by the end of Monday before sending them to state election officials.
Over the past weekend, Judge Matthew Brann dismissed the campaign’s lawsuit, which had sought to throw out hundreds of thousands of votes in Pennsylvania, saying that election officials in Philadelphia and other Democratic-leaning counties violated the equal protections clause under the U.S. Constitution. They alleged that those counties allowed voters to “cure” mail-in ballots that had issues, while GOP-leaning counties followed the law and didn’t alert voters about potential issues with ballots.
Brann, an appointee of former President Barack Obama, ruled Saturday that he “has no authority to take away the right to vote of even a single person, let alone millions of citizens.” The order allowed Pennsylvania to move forward with certifying the results of the Nov. 3 election. Current data shows that Democrat Joe Biden is ahead of Trump by around 80,000 votes in the Keystone State.
Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani along with Ellis are in favor of moving their legal challenge to the supreme court, welcoming Brann’s dismissal of the lawsuit.
Trump called out Brann on Twitter for partisan politics.
….WILL APPEAL!
