Republicans have four active cases in front of the state court in the Silver State. The only federal case—Stokke v. Cegavske—though technically active, has not had a filing for days after a judge rejected a motion for an injunction.
“Technically the case is active, however, all of the relief requested in the complaint could only be granted prior to the completion of vote counting,” Robert Kern, an attorney for the plaintiffs, wrote in an email to The Epoch Times. “So while the case remains, any chance for it to accomplish anything ended with the denial of their motion for an injunction.”
The Trump campaign is backing an election contest—Law v. Whitmer—brought by the president’s electors against the electors for Biden. The lawsuit alleges widespread voter fraud, including a claim that 15,000 people who voted in Nevada also voted in other states.
The attorney for the plaintiffs in a lawsuit brought by Daniel Rodimer, a Republican candidate for office, called on the judge in the case, Gloria Sturman, to recuse because she belongs to a Democratic group with a stated goal of flipping House seats. Sturman declined to recuse and referred the motion to the court’s chief judge. Rodimer is challenging the use of ballot-processing machines and asking the court to order a new election.
Lawsuits brought by two other Republican candidates for office are also challenging the use of ballot machines. A hearing is scheduled for Nov. 24 in the case brought by April Becker, a candidate for Nevada Senate. Republican House candidate Jim Marchant will have his case heard on Jan. 5. Both plaintiffs are calling for a new election.
