Trump Campaign Says It Has Uncovered Enough ‘Fraud’ To Overturn Election Result

Former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani reiterated the Trump campaign’s claims of election fraud in a Thursday press conference, saying the campaign has discovered numerous election workers who say they witnessed fraud.

Giuliani says he has signed affidavits from “at least ten” of these witnesses but he claimed he couldn’t reveal the vast majority of witnesses because they “don’t want to be harassed.” Trump campaign lawyers Jenna Ellis and Sidney Powell joined Giuliani and other Trump officials at the press conference. The fraud accusations centered around Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

“On November 4 2020 I was instructed to improperly predate the absentee ballots when the receipt date was after November 3rd 2020,” Giuliani quoted from one election worker. “We have 100 more of these. I can’t show them to you because they don’t want to be harassed.”

Giuliani argued the campaign would be able to present a more full presentation of evidence if the case is taken to court, and Ellis said the conference was “an opening statement” and that there is more to come.

Giuliani went on to say the campaign will be filing a fresh lawsuit in Georgia, most likely on Friday. He argued the ongoing recount in Georgia “means nothing” because fraudulent ballots will be counted again.

Powell followed Giuliani’s presentation with accusations that “communist money” paid for Dominion voting systems and that those systems were created in Venezuela “at the direction of Hugo Chavez.”

The press conference came hours after the Trump campaign withdrew its lawsuit challenging the result of the election in Michigan on Thursday.

Giuliani claimed the campaign had achieved its goal of halting the certification of results in Wayne County, which encompasses Detroit. This is not the case, however. The four-member bipartisan board of elections in Wayne County voted to certify election results on Tuesday, and the two GOP commissioners later sought to rescind their certifying votes Wednesday after at least one of them received a personal call from the president, according to the Washington Post.

“This morning we are withdrawing our lawsuit in Michigan as a direct result of achieving the relief we sought: to stop the election in Wayne County from being prematurely certified before residents can be assured that every legal vote has been counted and every illegal vote has not been counted,” Giuliani said in a statement to reporters.

The Wayne County board of elections has already sent the certified results to the Michigan secretary of state and there is at present no way for the regretful GOP members, William Hartmann and Monica Palmer, to affect the certification.

The pair say they were subjected to harassment, threats and other pressures to vote to certify the election results during a chaotic zoom meeting Tuesday evening. Alleged footage of county residents berating the pair during the public comment period has spread across social media.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
