I'd like to read some of the reasons that courts denied or tossed out the petitions (right word?) regarding election irregularity. This would be at state level.

My intent is to see if they were rejected on the merits, particularly after a thorough review of information provided, or tossed primarily on procedural grounds.

I know there were alot of cases in a short time but have to start somewhere.

Wouldn't this mean they actually had to look/hear some sort of evidence? Nothing I read showed any indication they wanted evidence presented in any fashion.

On the ones I saw, lack of credible evidence was listed as the reason.

I know you're looking for state, but the opinion of the federal district judge in the Michigan case is at document 62.

They were rejected on the basis of precedent in old case law. For further reference see Chinese Communist Party vs Orange Man Bad.

I thought most, if not all, ruled the plaintiffs did not have standing.

to my knowledge all were thrown out on standing. There was never an evidentiary hearing, but I'm not fully engaged in the day to day legal news, just a casual observer.

ETA: I think this is the trick being used to suppress meaningful investigation. They throw out the case on standing and then claim (truthfully but deceptively) that "no evidence has been presented!"

take the one about there were more votes cast in Detroit than there are registered voters there (which by the way, Trump offered up in his insurrection speech on Wednesday). Courts would throw stuff like that out because it is obviously not true and only an idiot (trump) would offer it up as evidence. Or that dead people voted. Yes there were a few instances where people died between the dates when they mailed in there ballots and election day (these votes were not counted). Also there are instances where people have the same name as someone else who may have died decades ago. Just many stupid conspiracies that were not worth the courts time.
