Christina Bobb, who was part of Trump-backed fake elector scheme, tapped to run unit by Republican National Committee
As Donald Trump’s presidential campaign has cemented its hold on the Republican National Committee (RNC), alarms are being raised about the organisation’s tapping of the fervent election denialist Christina Bobb to run an “election integrity” unit.
Bobb is a former Trump lawyer and ex-reporter for the far-right One America News Network, who gained prominence after Trump’s 2020 loss for promoting bogus fraud charges in Arizona, Wisconsin and elsewhere, and was part of Trump-backed efforts to substitute fake electors for ones that Joe Biden won in some states.
Bobb helped spread phoney voting fraud claims with Trump’s former lawyer Rudy Giuliani and the former campaign operative Mike Roman, both of whom along with Trump and others face charges in Fulton county, Georgia, of conspiring to overturn Biden’s win there; Bobb was not charged.
Last year Bobb wrote Stealing Your Vote: The Inside Story of the 2020 Election and What It Means for 2024, a book that was chock full of baseless charges about 2020 election fraud.
Remember.
Remember, they arent questioning ANY of the Republican victories on those ballots. They are only questioning the democrats that won on those ballots. Because somehow the ballots are fraudulent when the democrats win, but 100% legitimate when Repubs win, even if its on the same ballot.
Because there is no fraud… Its about undermining our institutions of our democracy. These election fraud claims are a more egregious, and dangerous, attack on our democracy than the Jan 6 insurrection.
Well yeah, didn’t you hear that democrats winning is proof of fraud now?
Only some of the ballot, though. The Republican parts still count, apparently.
