Nevada Court Calls For Fast-Track Filings In Election Case

LAS VEGAS (AP) — The Nevada Supreme Court is fast-tracking an appeal by the Donald Trump campaign aimed at nullifying Democratic President-elect Joe Biden's electoral win in the state.

Justices called for written filings by Tuesday afternoon, just a day after attorneys for six Republican electors appealed to overrule a lower court judge's finding that the Nov. 3 election was not swayed by fraudulent or illegal votes.

Democrats are defending the election and Judge James Todd Russell's finding. With the Electoral College due to finalize nationwide presidential election results next Monday, the state high court said it will expedite a decision.
