Wyoming legislators feed “The Big Lie” about election fraud
Wyoming Republican legislator Rep. Chuck Gray of Casper sponsored the recent “voter fraud prevention” bill because “we saw a great deal of discouragement after the last election” … ”and I think it’s created a lack of confidence” in the election process.
The only reason there were issues of confidence and integrity surrounding the election process is due to the blatant lies coming from ex-President Trump, who started The Big Lie, and his followers, who keep it going.
Why is Wyoming trying to add integrity to a process based on lies from someone who has no integrity? That makes no sense whatsoever.
False claims of election fraud have been continually dismissed by the courts, the Trump administration’s leading security officials and Republicans in Congress, including Sen. Mitch McConnell. Also, according to the conservative Heritage Foundation, Wyoming has had only three recorded cases of voter fraud in the last 40 years, most recently in 2014.
Don’t we want to show leadership and be part of the solution, rather than being sheep and contributing to the problem?
