MADISON, Wis. (AP) — President Donald Trump lost a Wisconsin lawsuit Friday seeking to disqualify more than 221,000 ballots and overturn his loss to Democrat Joe Biden in the battleground state, the latest in a string of legal defeats.
Reserve Judge Stephen Simanek ruled against every argument Trump made challenging ballots in the state’s two largest counties, saying the election was properly administered and there was no wrongdoing as the president alleged.

Just why in the heck is a Reserve Judge on this case?
Saw part of that; full of lies and idiocy.
This judge showed his hand yesterday when he said that finding for Trump would be the most sensational ruling ever from a federal bench. He was telegraphing that he’d rather let massive fraud stand than be accused of overturning the election. It had nothing to do with the merits. Indeed, I don’t think many - if any at all - of Trunp’s legal defeats have been about the law.
None of it has.
He’s a retired judge, since 2010. He’s a substitute teacher.
As such, none of the actual judges goes on the record for this miscarriage of justice.
Robed cowards. These lawyers in black robes are pretty brave when they can use the massive force of govt against some poor sap who’s being railroaded by the US Govt. Not so much when things get hot. Cowards, cowards, cowards. Traitors.
I have no confidence that there are 5 SCOTUS members brave enough to withstand what would happen in the streets if they followed the Constitution.
The only ones I'm sure of are Thomas and Alito.
Has to go to state supreme court, which had sent it back for review by lower courts per state law. This decision was needed to start the appeal process.
The Texas case is alive and well and on its way to SCOTUS.
So this local news outlet that supposedly serves Wisconsin relied on AP for the propaganda, eh?
True, though SCOTUS has to decide to hear it. That is up in the air at the moment.
If they refuse to hear it, I’m not sure what happens next.
“This judge showed his hand yesterday when he said that finding for Trump would be the most sensational ruling ever from a federal bench.”
He’s a state county judge.
After that comes the big one.
The Supreme Court already ruled differently in a slightly different Wisconsin case a month ago.
No according to another FR thread...
“If they refuse to hear it, I’m not sure what happens next.”
You amend the case slightly and file the case again.
