The Trump campaign filed a lawsuit Wednesday calling for Michigan to stop counting ballots until the campaign is awarded access to watch the process, The Hill reports.
President Donald Trump’s campaign manager Bill Stepien claimed that the Trump campaign was denied "meaningful access" to observe the opening of ballots at multiple locations.
"We have filed suit today in the Michigan Court of Claims to halt counting until meaningful access has been granted," Stepien said in a statement. "We also demand to review those ballots which were opened and counted while we did not have meaningful access. President Trump is committed to ensuring that all legal votes are counted in Michigan and everywhere else."
Former Vice President Joe Biden has a slight edge over Trump, but the election has not been called. Candidates are after the state’s 16 electoral votes.
