press of the six battleground states repeatedly disputed by trump, arizona, georgia, michigan, nevada, pennsylvania, wisconsin. it found fewer than 475 potential cases of voter fraud, a number that would have obviously made no difference in the 2020 presidential election. and some of the few cases of voter fraud we do know about involve republicans, not democrats. one example, in florida three residents of the villages in sumter county were just charged with voting twice, once in florida and once out of state. according to wkmg in orlando, all three registered as republicans during the election. it's unclear if they voted in two different places by accident or on purpose though i'm willing to think it might just be on accident. wkmg says this is the first time in 20 years that anyone in sumter county has been prosecuted for anything like this. which is not surprising because again, voter fraud is incredibly rare. yet the myth of voter fraud is key to trump's big lie. and it was key before trump. key to republican efforts to disenfranchise voters across the country before donald trump. in an expansi
