Georgia's secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, calls out Georgia Representative for spreading false information during the 2020 election.

from doing citizenship verification when people register to vote. Well, if you can't do citizenship verification, then how do you know that you don't have non-Americans on the rolls?

We've also instituted verifiable paper ballots so we can audit any race. We can prove that the machines don't flip the votes when we do a 100 percent hand recount. And that's what we showed in 2020. That is just a basic grade-school mathematical logic. That if the machine gets one answer and then you do a hand recount of the machine count and you look at the human-readable texts to get the same answer, and many counties did, it shows you those are the results.

But we stood up and gave voters the option to do it with a driver's license, an online portal to request absentee ballots. Put in your driver's license number, boom. We've got who you are, and we send you your application. We sent about—over 125,000 to 150,000 people used that online portal in the fall election. Then we put that into state law with the election integrity act. We led on that. We drafted most of that bill, and then a few things that were put in there...

It's mostly just sometimes, from time to time, you get some random insults, with, you know, grade school language or stuff I used to hear at the job site all the time. As secretary of state, I've always taken the position that I don't endorse candidates during election season. I want everyone—as the chief election official, I don't think that's a position that I should take. So in the 2020 race, I did vote for President Trump, but I did not endorse him. If we wouldn't have had the issues post-2020, I wouldn't have, perhaps, let people know that I did vote for President Trump.

We gave them all the information that they requested at no cost to them. We provided any documentation that they wanted. Some people already have given interviews to them. Obviously, they're now at that phase where every witness that they bring in they'll bring in with subpoenas, and we will follow the law and follow the Constitution. We'll just find out who they want to talk to and who they'd find of interest, but other than that, they don't really tell us.

No, I haven't been asked since the committee hearing. They had lots of witnesses to talk about or to talk with. So they're looking at other things, but you know what we faced, during the election and then post-election, it's really already out there. I wrote a 10-page letter to Congress. They have it. I did let the committee know that my letter has been updated in one area. We said that there's two dead people [who voted], and there was actually four.
