of voting irregularities and misconduct' after all major outlets projected Biden the winnerSen. Lindsey Graham, the South Carolina Republican who recently won his race for reelection to the Senate, said Saturday that the Senate Judiciary Committee would investigate "all credible allegations of voting irregularities and misconduct."
According to a Saturday report from The Hill, Graham made the comments in a press release after the Trump campaign sent him an affidavit by a postal service worker in Erie, Pennsylvania, named Richard Hopkins, who alleged that he overheard discussion about backdating mail-in ballots.
Graham's statement came after news outlets, like CNN, Fox News, and the Associated Press, called the race for Joe Biden on Saturday morning after Biden pulled ahead of Trump in Pennsylvania by more than 30,000 votes. Insider and its election partner, Decision Desk HQ, called the race in Biden's favor Friday morning.
In the affidavit, Hopkins alleged that he overheard Erie Postmaster Robert Weisenbach tell a USPS supervisor he was "back-dating the postmarks on the ballots to make it appear as though the ballots had been collected on November 3, 2020 despite them in fact being collected on November 4 and possibly later," according to the report.

This Hopkins guy was brought forward by James Okeefe. And he doesnt have any evidence, just his cock and bull story.

(1,737 posts)13. Hopefully we won't have to deal with Lindsey
after the 2 GA runoff. We can do this! GA is for all of us. We've got to keep up the energy, donate, and motivate Georgians to GOTV. Put the candidates on trial and also Mitch, his lack of empathy for us regular folks, his confirmation of the Barrett while resting on the stimulus for the people. We need the Senate. Let's do this!
