Washington: The top US cybersecurity official, who was fired by Donald Trump for saying the November 3 election was the most secure in American history, stood his ground and called the defeated US President’s voting fraud allegations as “farcical”.
“Calling an election unfair does not make it so. Charges require specific allegations and then proof. We have neither here. Voters, not lawyers, choose the president, and Ballots, not briefs, decide elections,” were some of the scathing observations made by an Appeals Court in Philadelphia made on Friday, according to a report in The Times of India.
Trump though was still adamant to undermine the results of the election. He even walked back on the implicit concession he made on Thursday that if the Electoral College certified the results, he would leave the White House.
“Biden can only enter the White House as President if he can prove that his ridiculous “80,000,000 votes” were not fraudulently or illegally obtained. When you see what happened in Detroit, Atlanta, Philadelphia & Milwaukee, massive voter fraud, he’s got a big unsolvable problem!” Trump tweeted after the Pennsylvania Appeals Court ruling.
