| The Trump campaign has responded to a full audio recording obtained and released by The Washington Post on January 3rd of a call between President Donald Trump and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, which focused on issues of election integrity. | |
| The Washington Post initially released snippets of the hour-long January 3rd call. | |
| The full transcript of the call reveals the president laying out a number of specific claims of election irregularities, including double voting, dead people voting, and Trump votes being shredded, along with other allegations that the president said denied him a win in Georgia. | |
| Jason Miller, senior advisor of the Trump campaign, tweeted, and the full recording will show that Georgia's Secretary of State is still a hack, and President Donald Trump is spot on in his criticisms of the terrible job Raffensperger did. | |
| During the phone conversation, Trump first went over some allegations of voter fraud in Georgia. | |
| It's in the 50s of thousands, and that's people that went to vote, and they were told they can't vote because they've already been voted for. | |
| And it's a very sad thing. | |
| He also touched on voters who worked on the registration list. | |
| 4,502 who voted, but they were not on the voter registration roll, which they had to be. | |
| And allegations of dead people voting. | |
| So dead people voted, and I think the number is in the, close to 5,000 people. | |
| Other claims made by Trump include allegations of illegal out-of-state voters casting ballots in Georgia, and a couple hundred thousands of forged signatures on ballots. | |
| The bottom line is, when you add it all up, Trump said, the many infractions were many, many times the 11,779 margin that they said we lost by. | |
| The phone call also involved the participation of White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. | |
| Mr. | |
| Secretary, I was hopeful that You know, in a spirit of cooperation and compromise, is there something that we can at least have a discussion to look at some of these allegations to find a path forward that's less litigious? | |
| Raffensperger then responded. | |
| President Trump, we've had several lawsuits and we've had to respond in court to the lawsuits and the contentions. | |
| We don't agree that you have one. | |
| He also argued he had different data on dead people voting. | |
| The actual number were two. | |
| Two. | |
| Two people that were dead that voted. | |
| David Schaefer, chairman of the Republican Party of Georgia, wrote in a tweet that the call was over two lawsuits Trump had filed against Raffensperger. | |
| President Trump has filed two lawsuits, federal and state, against Raffensperger. | |
| The telephone conference call Raffensperger secretly recorded was a confidential settlement discussion of that litigation, which is still pending, Schaefer wrote. | |
