mostra di piùIn the Tar Heel State's 9th district, Republican Mark Harris defeated Democrat Dan McCready by 905 votes, but the Harris campaign and a group he contracted with are accused of vote harvesting.
The Republicans are accused of swiping absentee ballots in predominantly minority neighborhoods and sending them back in. When the same person served as the witness for many of those votes, officials became suspicious.
Democrats are also under the legal microscope because groups affiliated with Democrats gathered some absentee ballots and turned them in. Those involved say their actions are much different because the actual people voted but North Carolina forbids anyone other than the voter or an immediate family member from turning in those ballots.
So how can officials possible determine who really won this election? Where do they even start?
We discuss it all with Hans von Spakovsky, manager of the Election Law Reform Initiative at the Heritage Foundation. He also served on President Trump's Advisory Commission on Election Integrity.
Von Spakovsky says North Carolina is not an isolated incident. In fact, California has legalized vote harvesting, allowing anyone to turn in absentee ballots, thus increasing the chances for fraud.
Listen to the full podcast as von Spakovsky details the extent of absentee ballot fraud, how he would crack down on it, and why this is proof that fraud does exist in elections.
A former Justice Department official, von Spakovsky also offers his reaction to to Trump's nomination of William Barr to be the next attorney general.
