The largest law firm representing the Trump campaign or its allies in post-election litigation challenging votes in key states has withdrawn from an election lawsuit in Maricopa County, Arizona.
Associate Presiding Civil Judge Daniel Kiley on Tuesday granted Snell & Wilmers request to withdraw as counsel of record for the Republican National Committee. The RNC had teamed-up with the Trump campaign and the Arizona Republican Party in the case, which alleges that Maricopa County incorrectly rejected some votes cast on Election Day.

(6,477 posts)Challenge some ludicrously small number of ballots (a few hundred) and use them to claim that the whole state or class of ballots (mail-in, early vote) is flawed and should be thrown out. It really feels like a seventh grade debate jerk's idea of law. And the kicker, of course, is that even the few hundred aren't flawed at all! The whole thing is laughable.
