“Prior to each meeting with TTV, Ms. Engelbrecht and Mr. Phillips stated they would provide us with the information to support their allegations,” the letter reads. “Despite repeated requests, TTV never did provide the information it purported to have in its possession.”Brnovich’s office said True the Vote repeatedly told the public that it had turned over the evidence, even though officials from the organization privately admitted that it wasn’t true.
“Not only is this patently false,” the letter says about public claims of proof, “TTV acknowledged via correspondence and during a meeting with them that they had not given us the information but that they would.”both D’Souza and True the Vote posted social media messagesSeveral Arizona Republicans, including gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake, secretary of state nominee Mark Finchem and U.S. Rep.
Brnovich’s letter just reiterates what we’ve known for nearly two years now: The GOP’s election fraud claims are nothing more than a potentially criminal method of amassing money and power.
