The Trump cam­paign on Sun­day called on a judge in Penn­syl­va­nia to block the state from cer­ti­fy­ing Demo­c­ra­t­ic nom­i­nee Joe Biden as the win­ner of the elec­tion, say­ing that there is evi­dence vot­ers were allowed to cor­rect prob­lems with their ballots.

“Unless Bush v. Gore was much ado about noth­ing, pres­i­den­tial can­di­dates of course have an inter­est in hav­ing law­ful votes for them count­ed and unlaw­ful votes for their oppo­nent inval­i­dat­ed,” the fil­ing said. “That’s par­tic­u­lar­ly true in Penn­syl­va­nia, one of a few swing states where recounts or oth­er lit­i­ga­tion is ongo­ing and where the vote mar­gin is close.”

Cam­paign lawyer Lin­da Kerns made the fil­ing in a fed­er­al court. It named about six coun­ties in the Key­stone State, alleg­ing that those coun­ty offi­cials ille­gal­ly allowed vot­ers to use defi­cient bal­lots to cast replace­ment absen­tee mail-in bal­lots ahead of the Nov. 3 elec­tion or pro­vi­sion­al bal­lots cast on Elec­tion Day to “cure” errors.

Bloomberg News first report­ed on the suit Sunday.
