In their report “Lost, Not Stolen: The Conservative Case that Trump Lost and Biden Won the 2020 Presidential Election,” eight prominent Republicans said the 2022 election was not stolen.
In their words: “There is absolutely no evidence of fraud in the 2020 presidential election on the magnitude necessary to shift the result in any state, let alone the nation as a whole.”
About Pennsylvania they said: “Contrary to public claims, Trump made no formal allegation of voter fraud in Pennsylvania, and there was no widespread fraud.”
Their appeal is: “We urge our fellow conservatives to cease obsessing over the results of the 2020 election and to focus instead on presenting candidates and ideas that offer a positive vision for overcoming our current difficulties and bringing greater peace, prosperity and liberty to our nation.”
The eight prominent authors are Judge Michael McConnell, director of the Constitutional Law Center at Stanford Law School; J. Michael Luttig and Thomas B. Griffith, former U.S. Appeals Court judges; Ben Ginsberg, Republican Party lawyer; Ted Olsen, former U.S. solicitor general; former U.S. Sens. John Danforth (Missouri) and Gordon Smith (Oregon); and David Hoppe, chief of staff to former Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.
