A judge in Georgia has dismissed a lawsuit filled by the state Republican Party and President Donald Trump’s campaign that asked him to ensure a coastal county was following state laws on processing absentee ballots.
Chatham County Superior Court Judge, James Bass ruled against Trump’s campaign on Thursday, November 5, 2020 but did not disclose the reason for his decision.
Chatham county includes the city of Savannah which is highly Democratic.
The suit had raised concerns about 53 absentee ballots that poll observers said were not part of an original batch of ballots. County elections officials testified that all 53 ballots had been received on time.
