Judge dismisses President Trump's federal lawsuit
'This is an extraordinary case,' U.S. District Judge Brett Ludwig wrote
Dec. 12 - MILWAUKEE --A federal judge Saturday dismissed President Donald Trump's lawsuit asking the court to have the Republican-controlled legislature pick the state's 10 electors.
"This is an extraordinary case. A sitting president who did not prevail in his bid for reelection has asked for federal court help in setting aside the popular vote based on disputed issues of election administration, issues he plainly could have raised before the vote occurred," U.S. District Judge Brett Ludwig, who was appointed by Trump, wrote.
AdvertisementTrump's federal lawsuit originally asked the court to "remand" the case to the Republican-controlled legislature to pick new electors who would then cast their votes for Trump on Monday.
Ludwig last week called that request "bizarre."
After that comment, Trump amended his request to instead order the governor to issue a certificate of the results consistent with the appointment of electors designated by the legislature.
Ludwig, in a pretrial conference on Wednesday, called that request "also very odd." continue to read
