President Donald Trump will challenge the election outcome in Philadelphia, his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani said at a weekend news conference. Votes in that city helped Joe Biden pull ahead in Pennsylvania. Ten GOP state attorneys general on Monday filed a brief with the Supreme Court supporting the Trump campaign’s legal challenge to counting mail-in ballots arriving up to three days after the election in the state. In Michigan, an appeals court on Monday told the Trump campaign to submit more paperwork in its case over vote counting there.
Under Georgia law, statewide races in which no candidate earns more than 50 percent of the vote automatically go to a runoff election. Incumbent GOP Sen. David Perdue has consistently led his challenger, Jon Ossoff, but his share of the votes dropped to 49.8 percent as of Saturday morning. Ossoff, a journalist who ran slightly ahead of Perdue in pre-election polls, seemed to take a Jan.
Democrats’ edge over the GOP in the House of Representatives could shrink from 35 seats to 17 once all the votes are counted. On a Thursday caucus conference call, moderate Rep. Abigail Spanberger, D-Va., who holds a narrow lead in her district, denounced her colleagues for ruining the election by pushing for socialism and defunding the police, Politico reported.
