      Judge Brann asks why he should consider claims that were deleted and taken out of the action. "That's what I'm bound to. The complaint's been amended. Do we agree?" Giuliani says certainly, with a chuckle.

      Judge Brann turns to the "new theory" of standing. "In the amended complaint, you said your clients tried to vote in Lancaster and Fayette County." "So why didn't you just sue the counties that are responsible for your clients' injuries?"

      Linda Ann Kerns answers that one, claiming that equal protection issues transcend state law. (The argument is that other counties' efforts to expand ballot access harm those that don't, a notion another attorney described as a race to the bottom.)

      Judge Brann: "Why is Secretary Boockvar here?" He notes that her actions have nothing to do with their clients' votes, but they sued her.

      Q: What is the injury? Kerns, Trump camp atty: Of the voters or the campaign? Q: The campaign. Kerns alleges that if everyone had a chance to cure defective ballots, the results could have been "very, very different."

      Biden has a 70K+ lead, and the Trump campaign is saying that could have caught up if only mail-in voters—with whom Biden performed well—had been allowed to cure defective ballots. That's the claim.

      Judge Brann asks whether the Trump campaign is raising any other theories of standing. Giuliani recites his previously-cited theory of standing.

      Judge Brann: What standard of review should I apply in this case and why? Giuliani says the "normal one." Are you arguing that strict scrutiny should apply? Giuliani says normal scrutiny should apply.

      Brann: How does making it easy for some people to vote burden the plaintiffs' right to vote?

      Judge Brann tells the plaintiffs that they need a new motion for an injunction since they have a such a different amended complaint. "You should write this down. That's what lawyers do. They write things down."

      Replying to @KlasfeldReports

      The judge is basically explaining to the Trump team exactly what they need to do, step by step, which is very elementary-school. Then he says, "A lot of these matters can be cured with a drink and dinner," and THAT is a collegiate-level burn.

          Assuming you’re asking about the “drink and dinner” part: that’s judgese for “you’re wasting the court’s time, if you would act like grownups you could resolve this in five minutes.”

          Judge seemed to be pandering @RudyGiuliani instead of kicking him at the end, but he was saying nicely the case has no standing.
