Trump Campaign Lawyer Tells PA Judge He Has 'No Knowledge' of Voter Fraud Related to Ongoing Ballot

Count

Jonathan Goldstein, an attorney representing President Donald Trump's reelection campaign, told a Pennsylvania judge that he was not aware of fraudulent ballot counting procedures in the state's Montgomery County during a Tuesday appearance in court.

The Trump campaign filed a lawsuit one day prior aiming to challenge election results against Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar and local Election Boards in seven counties, including Montgomery.

The campaign's Montgomery petition claimed that election officials illegitimately counted roughly 600 absentee and mail-in ballots, which it said should have been tossed out due to "deficiencies."

However, when a judge presiding on Montgomery County's Court of Common Pleas pressed Goldstein to address whether tabulation procedures affecting those ballots in question constituted fraud, Trump's attorney said they did not.

to debase themselves for a cause like this. Why would anyone go through all the trouble to get a law degree and then
choose to look like a damn fool?

Used to be a joke, but seems to becoming more and more reality. I think Rudy will be in there with him until the bitter end. Bunker buddies.
