Democratic attorney Marc E. Elias announced on Twitter Thursday that President Donald Trump has officially lost his 30th lawsuit after an Arizona judge dismissed his case.

In this suit, the Arizona Republican Party wanted to force a new audit of Maricopa County ballots. The county is the most populous Democratic area in the state and delivered President-elect Joe Biden a win.

Maricopa County Superior Court John Hannah dismissed the case with prejudice and denied the Arizona Republican Party's request to amend its complaint. Dismissing with prejudice means that they can't bring the suit again.
