“At least 17 states have joined Texas in the extraordinary case against the largest election fraud in US history. Thank you!” Donald Trump, with a tweet opened by an enthusiastic “Wow!”, Makes it known that other states – at least 17 he says – would have joined the cause that Texas wants to bring before the Supreme Court. Twitter, as is now customary for the messages of the chairman, marks the information as not verified.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced that he has filed lawsuits against four states – Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin – in the United States Supreme Court in connection with alleged election fraud. Paxton argued in his complaint that “Covid-related changes to electoral procedures in these states violated federal law” and for this he asked the Supreme Court to block electoral college votes in these four states, thus postponing the Biden’s official appointment as president expected on 14 December.
Trump’s announcement is just the latest in a series of election-related tweets. “If someone had cheated in the elections, which the Democrats did, why weren’t the elections immediately overturned? How is it possible for a country to be run like this?” The president wrote. “We will soon hear about the word courage and saving our country. I have received hundreds of thousands more votes than my opponent in all key states. All the data collected after the vote says it was impossible for me to lose except in one rigged election “.
