Trump campaign DROPS lawsuit in Michigan

Team Trump has dropped their lawsuit in Michigan after two Republicans rescind their votes to certify the vote in Wayne County:

FOX NEWS – President Trump’s reelection campaign said Thursday that it is dropping a lawsuit challenging voting results in Michigan, which show Democrat Joe Biden narrowly carrying the battleground state.

“This morning we are withdrawing our lawsuit in Michigan,” Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s personal attorney, said in a statement.

Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City, said the decision to rescind the lawsuit is the “direct result of achieving the relief we sought: to stop the election in Wayne County from being prematurely certified before residents can be assured that every legal vote has been counted and every illegal vote has not been counted.”

The Trump campaign’s lawsuit had attempted to stop Wayne County, Michigan’s most populous county and includes Detroit, from certifying its election results, alleging that thousands of invalid ballots were counted by election workers.

The Trump campaign is treating this rescission of these two Wayne County Republicans like it has undone the certification.

But Fox News reports that Michigan officials say the certification will stand:

State officials said the certification of the Detroit-area vote will stand.

I don’t know if these sworn affidavits have the power to truly undo this, but apparently the Trump campaign believes it does, enough to drop their lawsuit.
