Matt Fair Law360 (December 9, 2020, 7:01 PM EST) A Pennsylvania judge ruled Wednesday that a group of Republican lawmakers had waited too long before coming forward last week with claims of election irregularities and potential fraud aimed at upending President-elect Joe Biden s win in last month s presidential race in the state.
The state s Commonwealth Court ruled that the lawsuit, which sought a so-called mandamus order requiring that Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf decertify the result of the race, had come after the Nov. 23 deadline under state law for filing election contests.
