Source: The Hill
Georgias Republican secretary of state is pushing back on several false claims by President Trump about the states recount process and election integrity.
In a series of Facebook posts, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) first addressed the presidents claims that election officials were not allowing Trump campaign observers into counting rooms.
