House Speaker Mike Johnson Admits Lack of Evidence for Election Fraud Claims
House Speaker Mike Johnson acknowledged that he cannot substantiate claims of election fraud regarding three Republican candidates who lost their leads after Election Day. Johnson's comments came amid ongoing discussions about election integrity, spurred by President Trump's calls to nationalize elections. Johnson, a key figure in the January 6, 2021, efforts to challenge election results, expressed concerns over the appearance of fraud but admitted a lack of proof. This admission highlights the ongoing debate within the Republican Party about election processes and the integrity of mail-in ballots and voting machines.
