Lindsey Graham Denies Pressuring Georgia Official To Toss Legal Ballots

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) denied claims that he pressured Georgia’s secretary of state to find ways to throw out legal ballots, telling reporters Monday that it’s “ridiculous” to interpret their conversation that way.

Graham, one of the Republicans pushing outgoing President Donald Trump’s unsubstantiated claims about voter fraud in the Nov. 3 election, commented on the matter after Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger gave an interview to The Washington Post saying Graham asked him Friday if Raffensperger could toss out all the mail-in ballots in counties with higher rates of signature-matching issues.

Graham, chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, denied that’s what he said.

“I think that’s just ridiculous. If he feels threatened by that conversation, he’s got a problem. I actually thought it was a good conversation,” he said, adding he was only suggesting Georgia enforce a stricter signature verification process.

2. So Lindsey,

tell us why he would lie about such a serious accusation?
Tell us what he has to gain by lying?
Tell us why you would even get in touch with the SoS of another state about their voting?

You are nothing more than a lying sack of human excrement.

8. Why'd you get involved at all, Senator?

The last time I consulted a map, Georgia is not part of South Carolina. Butt out, Senator.

9. If I'm a Repuke politician and I live in a single-party consent state, I'm recording every convo

I have with any other Repuke politician or operative w/o letting them know. You never know when that shit will turn into unexpected unspoken leverage.

10. Of course Graham denies what he did

His actions probably bordered on illegality.

I'm deeply curious what is the lever of power that Lady G is so afraid of.

11. so, Lindsey has Cohen's old gig...

13. Lindsey is lying. For all the election fraud talk. Republicans are the ones trying to commit fraud

Ethics investigation!

14. I have to throw a flag on that one

he was only suggesting Georgia enforce a stricter signature verification process.

Then the proper person(s) to address are Georgia legislators and not the official tasked with carrying out the process.

Where have I heard that before?

17. Dude, a Republican SoS accused you of this slimeyness

You're guilty and you should be censured or worse for this despicable anti-democratic behavior.

19. What the hell is he doing talking with the Georgia Secretary of State about this issue?

Fucking criminal

20. Interfering with an election is illegal. If this was recorded Graham is in deep doo doo.

Of course the Orange shitStain will pardon him.
