Executive Summary

This is an analysis, requested by several, of the technical veracity of Navid Keshavarz-Nia’s November 25th 2020 Michigan federal lawsuit affidavit (Civil Case No. 20-13134). While the lawsuit seeking to overturn the state’s election results failed in a ruling on December 7th, the case could be appealed and therefore, the substance of the affidavit will likely remain at issue—at least in the court of public opinion. Therefore, this analysis remains meaningful, relevant, and timely.
