you did not win any don t have legal recourse, but we can t make it commonplace where election deniers, with actual candidates, because when they are, a year or so ago, you have people like cyber ninjas wasting taxpayer dollars running sham and fraudulent audits that we know didn t actually need to happen and the results stay the same. and i don t know if republicans will have a stiff enough spine to say no to donald trump, we will see tomorrow after this announcement. if he announces. having a spine, the issues and instances, it is contingent on whether the so-called leader of the republican party, donald trump will vie to be the next president yet again. listen to this, a number of people have been saying just today alone that trump is bad for the party, governor and larry hogan, listen to this. i think one of the messages from election is for republicans generally, is we
want me to take my state, 3.2 million voters and just throw them out the window because i want to and that s responsible on my part , okay, thank you, we are not doing that. bower kept his caucus on the sidelines. in the arizona senate, republicans there yielded the pressure from team trump and voted to conduct an audit of the results in arizona s largest county. when they got the cyber ninjas and i thought, i watched and this will be interesting. i want to be close to that. you may remember the ninjas, the company was run by a trump supporter, the employed ultra-violet lights which could identify ballots from china. they came out that mr. biden won by a larger margin and mr. trump lost a number of votes. bower and his colleagues in arizona were not the only state
