Today in court, a Pennsylvania judge asked a lawyer for Trump point-blank whether he was alleging fraud.
(Full transcript here https://democracydocket.com/cases/montgomery-county-board-of-elections-vote-count/)




THE COURT: In your petition, which is
right before me -- and I read it several times -- you
don't claim that any electors or the Board of the
County were guilty of fraud, correct? That's correct?

MR. GOLDSTEIN: Your Honor, accusing
people of fraud is a pretty big step. And it is rare
that I call somebody a liar, and I am not calling the
Board of the DNC or anybody else involved in this a
liar. Everybody is coming to this with good faith.
The DNC is coming with good faith. We're all just
trying to get an election done. We think these were a
mistake, but we think they are a fatal mistake, and
these ballots ought not be counted.

THE COURT: I understand. I am asking
you a specific question, and I am looking for a
specific answer. Are you claiming that there is any
fraud in connection with these 592 disputed ballots?

MR. GOLDSTEIN: To my knowledge at
present, no.

THE COURT: Are you claiming that there
is any undue or improper influence upon the elector
with respect to these 592 ballots?

MR. GOLDSTEIN: To my knowledge at
present, no.
