GOP suits have been filed in Pennsylvania , Michigan and North Carolina .
GOP plaintiffs claim state election offices created loopholes to allow ineligible people to vote through overseas absentee ballots.
Election officials and other political science experts say the suits filed in those states have no merit.
Some ex-pats living abroad are sounding the alarm after Republicans in three swing states have tried to delay accepting and counting overseas ballots.
As of Friday afternoon , 8,451 North Carolina absentee ballots have been requested by military members and 20,571 by civilians living overseas.
Of that number, almost 8,000 voters have already completed and submitted their ballots to be counted.
Experts say the three suits are part of a strategy by Republican leaders aimed at sowing doubt in the election results in the months to come.
