June 12, 2021 By Thomas Lifson

It sure looks like a lot of people are very nervous about the audits of ballots cast in the 2020 presidential election.  Yesterday, the attorney general of the United States, Merrick Garland, announced that the DOJ is "applying scrutiny" to post-election audits and will offer "guidance."

My Take - Remember this is the "moderate" Obama wanted to sit on the Supreme Court, and Mitch McConnell refuse to bring his candidacy up for a Senate vote.  He did that right at least.
