In the lawsuit, which was filed on Nov. 18, the Democrats are seeking a permanent injunction against any further audits of the race results between Republican Larry Gange and Democrat Maxine Mosley for one of the New Hampshire House of Representatives seats in Manchester, the state's largest city.

Democrats argue that state law prohibits any further audits of election results once the secretary of state declares a winner.

"At the conclusion of the recount, Democrat Maxine Mosley was declared the winner by the secretary of state. The secretary of state's declaration of Mosley's victory was posted on the secretary of state's website," the lawsuit states.

Republicans called the lawsuit a desperate move by the Democrats to overcome the Republicans' one-seat hold over the 400-seat House that was born out of the midterm elections.

"If the split was wider than than the current 200 to 199 seat for the House, I doubt there would be a lawsuit," Bill O"Brien, attorney for the New Hampshire Republican Party told The Epoch Times.
