Pence doesn't provide evidence of voter fraud in meeting with GOP senators
Vice President Mike Pence spent about five minutes briefing Republican senators Tuesday on President Trump’s legal battles in several swing states to change the results of vote counts in key states but didn’t provide any evidence or details of vote fraud or malfeasance.Pence explained the broad thrust of Trump’s legal efforts in several states, such as Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin and Arizona, and told GOP senators that the goal is to ensure every legal vote is counted and illegal ballots are dismissed, according to lawmakers in the room.
Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) said “He really didn’t give any deep insight into the actual legal challenges, the evidence specific, anything like that, which I think some people were sort of hoping [for,]” he added. Pence instead talked generally about the challenges being raised by Trump’s lawyers.
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) said “I haven’t heard yet evidence of wrongdoing that would suggest a change in the outcome of the election ... Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said the meeting was “mostly about the vaccine.” He didn’t hear much about the substance of Trump’s legal strategy.
