NORMAN â Despite having just come to national attention in the past week for her involvement with President Donald Trump, Cleta Mitchell once had a heavy hand in progressive Oklahoma politics.
Mitchell is now known as the estranged lawyer who was advising Trump during a phone call, first reported by The Washington Post, in which Trump and Mitchell attempted to coerce Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger into overturning the election results in Trumpâs favor.
Mitchell can be heard numerous times throughout the phone call making baseless claims of voter fraud while being continuously cut off by Trump. But Mitchell wasnât always peddling claims of fraud and fighting to overturn elections.
