Undeterred, US President-elect Trump never misses an opportunity to talk about voter fraud. But now the Ministry of Justice urges him to the parade. Nothing was found that could change the result.
According to Minister William Barr, the US Department of Justice has so far found no evidence of the electoral fraud alleged by US President Donald Trump on a large scale. “To date we have not seen any fraud to the extent that it could have led to a different electoral result,” Barr told the US news agency AP. The attorney general contradicted Trump.
The attorney’s comments come as a surprise: Barr is considered a Trump loyalist and has always backed the president in the past. Shortly after the AP interview was published, Barr was seen arriving at the White House. According to a spokeswoman for the Ministry of Justice, he appeared there for a “previously arranged meeting”.
Lawyers pounce on Trump immediately
Trump’s attorneys, Rudy Giuliani and Jenna Ellis, immediately contradicted the Attorney General’s assessment: There was not even “the appearance of an investigation by the Justice Department.” There is ample evidence of “illegal voting in at least six states.” Barr apparently commented on the matter “without knowledge,” the president’s legal team said. “We will continue our search for the truth about the judicial system and state parliaments.”
Trump has been speaking out about an alleged election fraud said to have helped his challenger Joe Biden to victory for weeks. Those responsible for the elections and the experts are in total disagreement. The Trump camp also failed with a series of lawsuits against the election. Election results have been certified by numerous states, including the key conflicting states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia, Arizona, and Wisconsin.
In the election four weeks ago, Biden won 306 out of a total of 538 voters. The former vice president needed at least 270 electoral women and men to win the election. The voters, who together make up the so-called Electoral College, will cast their vote in their respective states on December 14. Biden is scheduled to be sworn in as the 46th president in US history on January 20.
