Seventeen Republican-voting states have joined Texas’s Supreme Court lawsuit in an attempt to overturn Donald Trump’s defeat in the US election 2020.
Ken Paxton, the attorney general in Texas, contends that four key swing states broke the law when they made changes to their election procedures, a legal claim that has been branded “insane”.
It came as Kim Ward - a Republican state senator in Pennsylvania, a key swing state that Joe Biden won - said she feared her home would be bombed if she failed to support the president’s false claims of election fraud.
