The revelation comes from Washington Post, who has posted the more than one hour phone conversation that took place with his colleague Raffensperger last Saturday. It also shows that Trump still questions the outcome of the Georgia election on several points.
Among other things, it highlights rumors that voting machines have been tricked and that a poll worker has registered tens of thousands of Biden votes multiple times. These accusations have not been substantiated and the Trump campaign has repeatedly denied their allegations in court in several states.
Want to see a “recalculation” of votes
But judging from the conversation, Trump still believes the Georgia election has been “stolen” from him.
– There’s no way he lost Georgia. No way. We won with hundreds of thousands of votes, says Trump.
He also calls on Raffensperger to “seek 11,780 votes,” which is the number that would be required for Trump to win in Georgia.
– There is nothing wrong with saying, you know, that you have recalculated the votes.
But his remarks do not convince the prime minister, who repeatedly denies Trump’s claims.
When his appeals fail, Trump instead tries to hint that Raffensperger may be punished if he doesn’t do what the president wants, saying, among other things, that his actions carry “great risk.”
Triumph hot
Trump also threatens that the whole thing could have consequences for the important re-election to the Senate that will take place in Georgia on Tuesday, Swedish time.
Neither party wants to comment on the conversation. But in a tweet Sunday, Trump writes that the two spoke out and accuses Raffensperger of being “reluctant or unable to answer questions about the ‘vote under the table’ scam, the destruction of ballots,” voters “from other states, dead voters and more. He doesn’t have a genius! “
Raffensperger has responded to the president in a separate tweet.
“With all due respect, President Trump: what you say is not true,” he wrote.
