An overseas ballot process that has long been seen as sacrosanct by both parties, due to its connection to US military members serving in foreign countries, is facing multiple GOP-backed lawsuits. The legal assault on overseas ballots comes as they have become favorable for Democrats and could be crucial in the upcoming elections.
Republicans have filed new lawsuits in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Michigan, with former President Donald Trump suggesting, without evidence, that overseas votes are a source of fraud. There are about 6.5 million eligible American voters living abroad, with approximately 1.6 million in battleground states.
