Ashley Moody sat on the board of the dark-money arm of the Republican Attorneys General Association, the group that sent robocalls on the eve of January 6th urging Trump supporters to march on the Capitol to "stop the steal."
A States United Action count finds nearly 200 Republicans who backed Trump's attempt to overturn 2020 on this November's ballot. Capital & Main profiled nine who have report cards on this site — six voted on Jan. 6 to throw out two states' results, and some won't say they'd certify the next one.
In audio from an October fundraiser obtained by the Nevada Current, Gov. Joe Lombardo called Nevada the easiest place in the nation to vote — then added 'unfortunately,' to laughter. He has spent his term trying to roll back mail voting, and twice vetoed bills to punish fake presidential electors.
Days before Election Day, the Justice Department asked a federal court to block Alaska from certifying its U.S. Senate result if Sen. Dan Sullivan loses by fewer votes than a second, unrelated candidate named Dan Sullivan received. 'I'm the one that said do it,' Trump told reporters. A Notre Dame election-law professor called it 'one of the worst' legal arguments he's ever seen.
A CNN KFile review found Georgia's Republican Senate nominee joked about pushing Pelosi from a plane, suggested U.S. leaders deserved to hang from a helicopter, kept thanking a state senator censured for calling for 'more gallows,' and called January 6 a tour by 'peaceful grandmothers.'
At the only governor's debate, Tiffany said grant money from Mark Zuckerberg was one reason he tried to overturn the 2020 election. Those grants were legal at the time, and back then he was claiming mass illegal voting that two reviews never found.
Lisa Demuth's general-election pitch is bipartisan and pragmatic. To win her party's nomination, she told activists she 'fights and wins for the MAGA agenda.' She wrote a fetal-heartbeat abortion ban, blocked an assault-weapons ban after the Annunciation shooting, and still won't say Joe Biden legitimately won in 2020.
ProPublica reports Trump's DHS appointees asked the federal election-security agency to secretly acquire and hack a voting machine and send the results to the White House — while cutting a third of its staff and leaving states on their own before the midterms.
Trump's Justice Department handed Los Angeles County a password-protected thumb drive of supposed noncitizen voters and demanded, with a 48-hour deadline, that California stop sending them mail ballots and set aside any ballots they've already returned. It didn't say how many people are on the list or how it decided they aren't citizens. Federal law bars most states from systematic purges this close to an election.
