In the past week alone, the Trump campaign blitzed state and federal courts with roughly a dozen new lawsuits, most attempting to halt the vote-counting process or disqualify tranches of ballots. The majority of the Trump campaigns lawsuits were filed in Pennsylvania, Nevada, Georgia, and Michiganstates where either Bidens margin of victory is relatively slim, or where a winner has yet to be called.
After Biden declared victory on Saturday, President Donald Trump seemed poised to continue to fight in court. In comments from the White House, he vowed to pursue a lawsuit in Pennsylvania. But legal experts say his chances of meaningfully challenging the election are dwindling. Many of his campaigns lawsuits filed this week have been dismissed on lack of merit, and the ones that have gained some traction are unlikely to change the outcome of the Presidential race.

Judges have already tossed out or ruled against Trump campaign suits in Pennsylvania, Nevada, Georgia, and Michigan. State officials continue to count ballots in Nevada, North Carolina and Arizona, but the Trump campaign has not yet filed post-election litigation in those states.
The Trump campaign has also said it will demand a recount in Wisconsin, where the Associated Press called the state for Joe Biden. Requesting a recount in Wisconsin does not require a lawsuit. State officials, including former Republican Gov. Scott Walker warned that a recount was unlikely to change the electoral results. A recount in Georgia is pending.
