GOP Congressman Madison Cawthorn Admits There Was No Voter Fraud

During a Saturday appearance on CNN, Freshman Congressman Madison Cawthorn said that he accepts the presidential election results, despite voting to overturn Joe Biden’s win.

The North Carolina Rep. has been supportive of Donald Trump’s claims of alleged voter fraud, according to The Daily Mail. During the interview, he focused on possible “ballot harvesting” that allegedly took place in Wisconsin. However, when pressed by Pamela Brown, he could not provide any evidence to back his claim.

“The thing I was objecting for is things like, in the state of Wisconsin, particularly in the town of Madison, there was an appointed official in that town who actually went against the will of the state legislature and created ballot drop boxes, which is basically ballot harvesting that was happening in the parks,” he said.

Brown pushed back on Cawthorn’s claims, saying all these claims of voter fraud were litigated by Trump’s campaign and were either dismissed or withdrawn for lack of evidence. To date, there has been evidence that widespread voter fraud took place in the election.

Cawthron continued to argue that there were problems with voting and that he contested the election to “uphold the Constitution.” However, at the end of the interview, he eventually agrees that the election was not fraudulent.

“The Constitution allowed for us to be able to push back as much as we could, and I did that to the amount of the constitutional limits that I had at my disposal, so now I would say that Joseph R. Biden is our president,” he said.
