This is Robert Barnes, a distinguished civil rights lawyer, who has taken on several Federal Cases, and is currently on the Trump legal team and in a Federal building with other Republican lawyers yesterday and has met with Trump personally. He's not some random lawyer. He's got a distinguished career and has earned my respect.

I don't think you've listened to the full call. It's an hour long and I have. If you had, you would have noted Georgia officials said there was no issue with ballots of dead people cast (they said this was legal) and the context of the 4 minute clip is totally wrong.
Brad Raffensperger: Well, Mr. President, the challenge that you have is the data you have is wrong.
We talked to the congressmen and they were surprised. But they -- I guess, there's a person
named Mr. Brainard that came to these meetings and presented data and he said that there was
dead people. I believe it was upward of 5,000. The actual numbers were two. Two. Two people that
were dead that voted. And so that's wrong. That was two.
If he's discussing Matt Braynard's data, that data doesn't have strong indications of dead people voting being an issue.
It does present a compelling argument that really needs to be addressed sooner than later, however. The margins of the questionable statistics presented are well beyond the margin of victory.
