The Nevada Supreme Court on Tuesday night rejected President Trump's appeal to overturn the state's election results, affirming President-elect Joe Biden's win in the 2020 battleground.

The decision comes after a court ruled last week against the Trump campaign, stating that the president's team was unable to prove that there were fraudulent results due to malfunctions with voting devices in the state, Reuters noted.

"We also are not convinced that the district court erred in applying a burden of proof by clear and convincing evidence, as supported by the cases cited in the district court's order," Nevada's Supreme Court said in its judgment.

Trump's lawsuit in Nevada originally asserted unproven allegations that more than 61,000 people voted twice or voted and were not Nevada residents. Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford (D) asked Trump's lawyer Jesse R. Binnal to provide evidence to back his claim that the state's election was "stolen," but he was unable to do so, The Washington Post reported.

"They never once presented sufficient evidence of widespread fraud. Yes, they spouted nonsense in the media. But they NEVER backed it up in court. That's why they always lost. And that's why they lost again tonight," Ford wrote on Twitter early Wednesday.

The Nevada Republican Party expressed its disappointment in the decision in a statement on Tuesday.

"We were not afforded an opportunity to write our brief or argue the case in front of the Supreme Court. Full denial of legitimate due process and appellate rights is truly unprecedented, shocking and extraordinary," the party said.

Biden won in Nevada by 33,596 votes, securing the state's six Electoral College votes. Electors are set to finalize the results of the election on Monday, with Biden garnering a total of 306 electoral votes to Trump's 232, Reuters noted.

Trump has refused to concede the election, and his campaign has been unsuccessful in multiple challenges to election results across the country.

It is just as if I am reading about PDP above.
Exactly the same way they spout nonsense in the media in Nigeria.
TrumpNonso, the day I know you will lose was when I saw the ipobs pigs, ( as dem leader kanu call them) starting to support you, nothing in this world they support ever come out positive.
Make una fear u no fear ipob terrorists.

Why is Biden still a projected winner
Still a month and few days to go
Probably the electoral College are still shocked at the electoral malpractice and the revelation of Dominion company
I hope the joy of Biden supporters won't be turned into Sifia Pains...

Ok. It is noted.

Trump lost because our Igbo brothers supported him

The fact that Nairaland mods always rush to push all pro-Biden news to front page and push anti-Trump news to front page BUT will not push any pro-Trump news to front page clearly shows that you guys are very biased and not politically neutral.

But it DOESN'T MATTER anyway. As of today, about 10 States and counting have joined the State of Texas in filing a lawsuit against the 4 Swing States and the application has been accepted into the SCOTUS docket, and there will be a hearing on it tomorrow. This is FEDERAL level Supreme Court ohh, you know the SCOTUS itself where you have 9 Supreme Court justices with a 6 Right - 3 Left configuration, and 3 out of the 6 were appointed by Trump. And the SCOTUS already ruled on something similar in the Foster Vs Love 1997 Case. The SCOTUS will surely affirm on the irregularities that violates the US Constitution. It will be so easy for Trump to win at the SCOTUS. Aswea he go shock una Trump haters by tomorrow
