In her February 11 newsletter, Heather Cox Richardson reported:
Today, Josh Dawsey of the Washington Post reported that Trump’s campaign hired a consulting firm to try to prove that the election had been stolen. The Berkeley Research Group examined the election results in six swing states, but could not find anything that would have changed the outcome. “They looked at everything,” a source told Dawsey: “change of addresses, illegal immigrants, ballot harvesting, people voting twice, machines being tampered with, ballots that were sent to vacant addresses that were returned and voted…. Literally anything you could think of. Voter turnout anomalies, date of birth anomalies, whether dead people voted. If there was anything under the sun that could be thought of, they looked at it.”
It won’t change the minds of the “election deniers” but for those of us who like to think we’re part of the “reality-based community” this serves as further confirmation that the former guy was just “blowing smoke” with his claims that the 2020 election was “stolen” from him.
