The media already projected that the president’s opponent will win Michigan. The Trump campaign filed a lawsuit to stop the ballot-counting across the state, arguing that they weren’t given enough access to multiple counting locations.

In a statement, Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien said, “President Trump’s campaign has not been provided with meaningful access to numerous counting locations to observe the opening of ballots and the counting process, as guaranteed by Michigan law. We have filed suit today in the Michigan Court of Claims to halt counting until meaningful access has been granted. We also demand to review those ballots which were opened and counted while we did not have meaningful access.”

The news of the lawsuit encouraged more Republican vote challengers to protest the ballot-counting process in that location.
