Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said that he would investigate “all credible allegations of voting irregularities and misconduct” after receiving a sworn affidavit from a Pennsylvania postal worker alleging officials devised a plan to backdate mail ballots.
The senator’s remarks came less than two hours after The Associated Press and other news outlets officially projected Joe Biden and Kamala Harris the winners in the race for White House.
President Trump has since refused to concede, repeating his claims without evidence that there have been several cases of voter fraud as part of a Democratic effort to steal the election from him.
In a press release, Graham stated that he had received a sworn affidavit from the Trump campaign provided by Richard Hopkins, a postal worker from Erie, Pa.
In the affidavit, Hopkins alleges that Erie Postmaster Robert Weisenbach told workers he was “back-dating the postmarks on the ballots to make it appear as though the ballots had been collected on November 3, 2020 despite them in fact being collected on November 4 and possibly later.”
The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that the Keystone State could count mail-in ballots that are received as late as Friday of this week as long as they were postmarked on Nov. 3, Election Day.
In response, Graham wrote in the release that “it is imperative that all credible allegations of voting irregularities and misconduct be investigated to ensure the integrity of the 2020 elections.”
“The presidential election remains close in multiple states, and as Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, all credible allegations of voting irregularities and misconduct will be taken seriously,” he continued. “I will not allow credible allegations of voting irregularities or misconduct to be swept under the rug.”
The top Republican lawmaker added that he would be “calling on the Department of Justice to investigate these claims.”
“I’ll also be in contact with the Postmaster General, requesting he to look into these allegations, ones that may follow, and help secure the testimony of Mr. Hopkins,” Graham continued.
“Every American should want our election processes to work accurately, and given the recency of such a large volume of mail-in voting, that will require oversight,” Graham added. “Election outcomes are not determined by media outlets but certified, accurate vote counts.”
Oh yea Lindsey will investigate.......... Sure......... Just like he did with everything else. All talk and no action.
Now they give a shit when the Senate is looking shaky.
Would serve them right if the Rats get the majority.
Let. It. Burn.
Biden will be gone by March.
So do you think they will steal those elections as well?
Of course. They won’t even try to hide it.
I doubt if Graham investigates even a third of what he says he will. Grassley was a much bette Judiciary Chairman.
I'm not sure what's going to happen but, I'm certainly sure, I will not go quietly into the night.
There needs to be an end to congressional and senate investigations. It is all theater regardless of which side is running them. Nothing gets accomplished except they get air time. People giving testimony lie without repercussion. We hear endless long winded lectures. In the end, nothing ever happens.
Good idea, Linda, but you’re several years too late!
Oh sure you will, Lindsay. Don’t insult our intelligence yet again.
As I just posted in another thread:
“While there were numerous irregularities...blah, blah, blah, it is important for us all to maintain faith in our election system...blah, blah blah.
Probably take 18 months to reach that foregone conclusion they could write today for all they are actually going to not do.
To quote the immortal and eloquent Ice Man from Top Gun: BS! Linda won, whether Trump stays or leaves you are about to see the real Linda Graham on display in all her backstabbing glory.
Licking genitals is necessity for dogs. It is how they keep clean. Dogs can’t take a shower by themselves.
There is an old dog who barks at us every night on our walk. But he’s too old to come after us.
I think I will name the dog Lindsey.
No crime can be investigated before it happens.
Investigations are useless unless you convict.
Haven’t seen any convictions out of any of these investigations outside of a few lower echelon scapegoats.
Licking genitals is necessity for enemidia (CNN/NBC/FOX). It is how they keep dirty.
There will be an amalgamation of the various law suits and a decision by the Supreme court.
Once Donald Trump is declared re elected, then the assault on the Democrat party will begin.
Until Democrats are dead and gone, there will be no America
How to go for it...CRIMINAL BALLOTING

Even RED STATES require an AUDIT-not a recount
Actions speak louder than words. Linda talks a good fight.
