Arizona judge denies Trump team request to seal evidence in vote-counting suit – By Julia Musto (FOX News) / Nov 11 2020
An evidentiary hearing is scheduled for Thursday morning
An Arizona Superior Court judge has denied a request by President Trump‘s reelection team to seal evidence in a lawsuit alleging poll workers in Maricopa County “incorrectly rejected” Election Day votes.
Judge Daniel Kiley did not comment on the evidence that was presented but denied the motion after determining that the sensitive information in the documents could be redacted prior to an upcoming hearing. He determined that sealing was not required.
According to the Arizona Republic, the Trump campaign claimed workers had disregarded procedure and that thousands of ballots could have been left uncounted or deemed “overvotes,” but Maricopa officials estimated Monday that only 180 ballots were potentially in jeopardy.
It’s a figure they said won’t “make one iota of difference,” according to 12 News.
