The Trump campaign and its proxies have now lost or withdrawn from all of their major legal efforts in Michigan.

Giuliani "is just plain wrong," says David Fink, lead lawyer for the city of Detroit.

"The belated attempt to rescind a vote after the vote has been taken and the board has acted is legally meaningless."
