Tuesday is the "safe harbor" deadline, a key date where "states must certify results if they want protection under federal election law against Congress stepping in to decide which candidate gets their electoral votes."

In Nevada, the Trump campaign has filed a notice of appeal with Carson City District Court after its lawsuit seeking to block certification/switch NV's 6 electoral votes to Trump were rejected by Judge James Russell on Friday

We're waiting for the actual appeal itself to be filed with the state Supreme Court, which will likely happen at some point today and ask for an expedited decision before the end of Tuesday
The NV Supreme Court hasn't yet ruled on any post-election litigation, but did deny a Trump campaign request pre-election to stop mail ballot processing in Clark County

@TheNVIndy Here is the filing - unanimous ruling
beta.documentcloud.org/documents/2042… Image
@TheNVIndy From ruling: "To prevail on this appeal, appellants must demonstrate error of law, findings of fact not supported by substantial evidence, or an abuse of discretion in the admission or rejection of evidence by the district court...We are not convinced they have done so."

If you're still following for updates on the Trump election contest lawsuit in Nevada;

Attorneys for the Trump campaign + Dems have a 7 p.m. deadline to submit supplemental briefs to the state Supreme Court.

Any filings will be posted here:
caseinfo.nvsupremecourt.us/public/caseVie…
Will there be a decision tonight?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But the fact court asked for supplemental brief after hours is maybe a good sign for a ruling tonight - Ds want decision today (safe harbor deadline) and GOP wants to fully brief case/decision next week
Both the Trump campaign and Dems have filed supplemental briefs by the 7 p.m. deadline. Image

Here is Justice Hardesty's response to the Trump campaign's motion to disqualify him from the election contest lawsuit in Nevada - says his comments to @NVSOS was "an appropriately courteous and professional response and in no way reflects any predisposition or opinion by me." ImageImage

Sturman: You are asking, as a preliminary matter to throw out 1,400,000 votes on the chance that somewhere around 258 people voted who should not have
Sturman says she's "really struggling" with idea of throwing out the election, says doing so would cause "very serious harm to public, disenfranchising the 1.4 million people who did vote....and the public interest is keeping people in office.
Sturman says she does not see herself granting a preliminary injunction based on the record.

"The civil remedy of throwing out an election is just a shocking ask."
