Republican Candidates Ready Claims Of Election Fraud

November 2, 2022 Republicans, Trump cultists

Josh Israel reports at American Independent:

Before and after the 2020 election, former President Donald Trump lied about the integrity of the process, baselessly claiming widespread voter fraud was the only reason for President Joe Biden’s victory. Now several Republican Senate nominees are using the same playbook to cast doubt on the 2022 midterms.

In an American Bridge 21st Century-flagged Sept. 25 Zoom conversation with young Republican activists, Mehmet Oz said that he already had a team of lawyers ready for Election Day and vowed to fight in the courts if Democrats “start changing the laws on us because they’re behind and they want to get extra votes.”

In an Oct. 5 appearance on the Vicki McKenna talk radio show, also flagged by American Bridge 21st Century, Ron Johnson claimed, “The FBI not only corrupted the 2020 election, they’re corrupting the 2022 election.” A spokesperson declined to commit that Johnson would abide by the results, saying, “It is certainly his hope that he can.”

The Guardian reports:



CNN put the same straightforward question to Lake: would she accept the results of her own election on 8 November? “I’m going to win the election and I’m going to accept that result,” she said. “If you lose, will you accept that?” CNN’s Dana Bash pressed. “I’m going to win the election and I will accept that result,” she robotically repeated.

Blake Masters has been telling supporters on the campaign trail to look out for thousands of fraudulent votes that will snatch victory from him – a pre-election ploy deployed by Trump in both 2016 and 2020.

Mark Finchem, the Republican running for secretary of state, led the push to decertify Biden’s victory in Arizona and was present at the US Capitol on January 6. During the primary elections, he said he would refuse to concede. “Ain’t going to be no concession speech coming from this guy,” he said.
