Barr authorizes DOJ to look into only ‘substantial allegations’ of voting ‘irregularities’ in the 2020 election
(Worthy News) – Attorney General William Barr authorized the Justice Department to investigate only “substantial allegations of voting and vote tabulation irregularities.”
President Trump has declined to concede the 2020 contest despite an apparent victory by former Vice President Joe Biden. Trump and his allies are pinning their hopes on legal challenges and recounts in battleground states where they claim there were illegal votes and other irregularities.
A two-page memorandum sent on Monday to the nation’s U.S. attorneys, the FBI, and DOJ’s criminal, civil rights, and national security divisions green-lighted the pursuit of serious claims of voter fraud only if the allegations were credible and could potentially shift the result in a state’s contest. In stressing that the Justice Department should act fairly and without politicization, Barr also said the agency should not investigate frivolous claims. [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
