This GOP official is totally wrong in believing the non-secure election machines are certifiable.
How does this guy get hired by the GOP? He’s either a very ignorant person repeating total BS about the election systems or he knows the truth and is not telling it.
The GOP needs better people not officials who hate their party’s leader.
He’s been mislead.
If he’s honest, maybe this will help… https://t.co/9m6hZDB2ZW— Zora Bunn (@BunnZora) April 10, 2024
