Rep. Bentz says 2020 presidential election was bought, not stolen
LA GRANDE – Oregon U.S. Rep. Cliff Bentz, R-Ontario, does not believe former President Donald Trump’s claim that President Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election because of voter fraud.
“The election was not stolen, it was bought,’’ Bentz, a first-term congressman, said during an appearance Jan. 6. in La Grande.
It was one of several statements Bentz made during the La Grande event and later expanded on Wednesday, Jan. 12, in an interview.

Bentz said Democrats had an enormous edge in funding donors with deep pockets, including one who donated $400 million to Biden’s campaign. Bentz said the Democrats spent several times more money per vote than the Republicans did.
Bentz referenced a large donation made by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and suggested it benefited Biden and Democrats.
