Gibbons misses the mark on 2020 election security
Mike Gibbons, candidate for the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate, is either clueless about election security or he is repeating Donald Trump's lies about voting.
Results in Ohio and the nation in the 2020 election have been verified as complete and accurate. U.S. elections are among the safest in the world. Ohio's use of mail-in ballots worked extremely well, allowing voting from home during a dangerous pandemic.
Former President Trump — a notorious sore loser — created the fiction of election cheating, demanding that his followers perpetuate this lie.
Independent verifications and recounts don't matter to Trump. He is willing to bend the U.S. Constitution to fit his "I can't lose" scenario.
Half of the election officials in all 88 counties are Republicans. Ohio's top election official, Secretary of State Frank Larose, also is a Republican. They need to set Gibbons straight on elections.
