"Giuliani asks DHS about seizing voting machines" [View all]
Rudy Giuliani called Ken Cuccinelli, second in command at the Department of Homeland Security, on Thursday night and asked him whether DHS could seize voting machines, a source familiar with the call confirmed to Axios.
The state of play: Cuccinelli responded that DHS does not have that authority, the source said.
Why it matters: The call, first reported by the New York Times' Maggie Haberman, is another manifestation of President Trump's contest an election that was called for President-elect Joe Biden six weeks ago.
On Friday night, as first reported by The New York Times, Trump discussed commandeering voting machines and appointing conspiracy-minded election lawyer Sidney Powell as special counsel to inspect the machines.
