Trump Tried To Buy Evidence Of Rigged Election But Found Nothing
According to a report, the Trump campaign hired an outside firm to investigate electoral-fraud claims. Still, no evidence was uncovered showing that the election had been rigged for Joe Biden. This took place just before the infamous riot at the Capitol. Trump knew there was no evidence of a rigged election, yet he still whipped his crowd of supporters into a frenzy and refused to release the findings of his campaign's investigation.
The Washington Post reports:
The campaign paid researchers from Berkeley Research Group, the people said, to study 2020 election results in six states, looking for fraud and irregularities to highlight in public and in the courts. Among the areas examined were voter machine malfunctions, instances of dead people voting and any evidence that could help Trump show he won, the people said. None of the findings were presented to the public or in court.
About a dozen people at the firm worked on the report, including econometricians, who use statistics to model and predict outcomes, the people said. The work was carried out in the final weeks of 2020, before the Jan. 6 riot of Trump supporters at the U.S. Capitol.
They have no shame.
