The lawsuits have only just begun. On Nov. 4, Bill Stepien, Trump's campaign manager, noting the close margins in Wisconsin, called the state "recount territory." "There have been reports of irregularities in several Wisconsin counties which raise serious doubts about the validity of the results," he said. Pennsylvania is also likely "ground zero" for coming election-related litigation, experts say. The commonwealth's 20 electoral votes make it the biggest prize of all the remaining battleground states, and its decision to expand access to mail-in voting for the first time this election cycle opens the door to lawsuits. The two lawsuits filed by the Trump campaign on Nov. 4 are likely just the beginning.
诉讼才刚刚开始
The state has already been the target of multiple Republican-backed lawsuits, with mixed results. In mid-September, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that mail-in ballots could be accepted through Nov. 6. Republicans tried twice to get the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene, and while the Justices declined to rule, they left open the possibility of hearing the case at a later date. If Pennsylvania is very close, says Potter, lawsuits are much more likely to occur because "both candidates will be fighting over which ballots to count."
该州已经成为多起共和党支持的诉讼目标,结果好坏参半
Pennsylvania's election officials also recently ordered ballots arriving after 8 p.m. on Election Day or without definitive time stamps to be "segregated" from the rest of the ballots—a move that, election experts say, suggests they are anticipating a postelection legal challenge to such ballots. On Election Day, local Republicans filed suit challenging the commonwealth's rules allowing voters to recast ballots after their first ones were disqualified.

As the lawyers sharpen their arguments, they are most certainly looking at how judges on both the appellate courts and the U.S. Supreme Court have ruled. In prior preelection cases, judicial opinions have most often rested on one of two principles. The first is that courts should not make decisions that change the rules of voting and ballot counting too close to an election, to avoid confusing people. The second is that state legislatures—not judges—should determine election laws, even if those laws may result in some voters not having their ballots counted. "Federal courts have no business disregarding those state interests simply because the federal courts believe that later deadlines would be better," Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote on Oct. 26 in a controversial opinion upholding Wisconsin's Election Day deadline for receiving mail-in ballots.
在律师们提出尖锐论点的同时,他们肯定也在关注上诉法院和美国最高法院的法官如何裁决
