YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump claimed without evidence this week that California’s ballot measure on new Democratic-backed congressional maps, and the voting process itself, was “rigged.”

In response to a question from PBS News about whether the administration has any evidence of these claims, the White House provided a list of statements it says support the president’s concerns about fraudulent voting in the state. But much of what the administration pointed to as evidence does not prove widespread voter fraud.

Here’s a closer look at some of the points shared by the White House with additional context provided by PBS News. Click the link in bio for the full list.
