• Last night, the Trump campaign filed a lawsuit in Wisconsin circuit court to challenge more than 220,000 votes.

• As the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported: "The campaign is challenging 170,140 ballots that were cast early, 28,395 ballots cast by voters who claimed to be indefinitely confined, 17,271 ballots collected at 'Democracy in the Park' events, and 5,517 ballots for which clerks filled in missing information." (The newspaper has a good overview of each category.)

• The Trump campaign had previously filed suit with the Wisconsin Supreme Court, but the court declined to hear the case yesterday in a 4-3 decision and said it must go through the lower courts first.

• The lawsuit was expected, as President Trump previously said his campaign would challenge the recount result, tweeting that a lawsuit "will be brought after the recount is over, on Monday or Tuesday."

• As National Review reported: "The head of the Trump campaign’s Wisconsin legal team, former Wisconsin Circuit Court Judge Jim Troupis, admitted that Wisconsin’s ten electoral votes likely will not change the overall outcome of the election but said the campaign also sees long-term benefits of challenging the election process in the state."

• Earlier, Wisconsin certified its election results and declared Joe Biden the winner. This was after the state finished a two-county recount at the request of the Trump campaign.

• President Trump will travel to Georgia tomorrow for what he promised would be a "big rally" as he campaigns for the Republican Senate candidates.

• This year, Georgia has two Senate run-off races, which will be decided on January 5. Since the Senate is currently split at 50 Republicans to 48 Democrats for 2021, these two races will be the deciding factor in which party has a majority.

• Also in Georgia, counties had until midnight last night to submit the results of their third recount of the presidential race.
