Judge Sima Patel dismissed a Republican challenge to overseas ballots, noting it was an '11th hour attempt to disenfranchise electors' before the November 2024 election.
Michigan has allowed eligible military members and overseas citizens to vote in federal elections under the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act.
The Republican National Committee claimed overseas voters weren't residents according to state law, but Patel found the state's guidance aligned with federal and state laws.
Many legal experts believe lawsuits challenging overseas voting by Republicans will likely fail, especially as they were initiated after ballots were sent to voters.
