(WBEN) - President Trump on Tuesday evening doubled down on his unproven accusations of fraud in the electoral process, and said that lawyers will get involved in the election.
"We think there's going to be a lot of litigation because we have so much evidence, so much proof," Trump said at a briefing from the White House. "It's going to end up, perhaps, at the highest court in the land."
But where will the legal challenges go? One expert doesn't think there's much that any court would change.
"This strategy is his only play, but it's doomed to failure," said Attorney Paul Cambria. "To challenge an election, you really have to have proof that there is some sort of fraud. We've heard of situations where people have been given two ballots and things like that, but usually in the end it doesn't turn out to be more than a few hundred or a few thousand votes one way or the other."
As for the President saying this will go to the Supreme Court?
"You can say that you want to go to the Supreme Court, but it's very difficult to get there," Cambria said. "Just saying you want to get there, even if you're the President, doesn't get you there."
Because of the unlikelihood of litigation changing any outcomes, Cambria said he believes that any talk of such occurring is more of a public relations play than a legal one.
