Trump’s version vs. Reality
The President's speech this month should have been about lowering costs and creating jobs. Instead, he continued spreading lies about American elections. The truth, however, is simple:
- Donald Trump lost the 2020 election.
- America's elections are secure, transparent, and run by state and local officials from both parties.
After the 2020 election, the CIA, the Department of Justice, the Department of Homeland Security, and other agencies investigated the vote and found no evidence of foreign interference. More than 60 courts rejected challenges to the outcome of the 2020 election. Republican and Democratic election officials alike confirmed the results. There was no evidence of widespread fraud that changed the outcome of the election.
Case closed.
Ahead of Election Day, I am supporting all efforts to protect access to the ballot box, defend Washington state's secure vote-by-mail system, and ensure election officials have the resources they need to administer free and fair elections.
On Election Day, I will work to stop voter intimidation and ensure polling places around the country remain open.
After Election Day, I will work to ensure all ballots are counted.
President Trump can lie all he wants, but the American people decide elections — not the candidates.
More soon,
Rick
