Former Georgia Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan, a Republican who publicly opposed Donald Trump’s false claims of election fraud in 2020, is now sounding the alarm about the possibility of Trump challenging the results of this year’s election if he loses. Duncan expressed concern that Trump and his allies are once again casting doubt on the US election system.
Last year, Duncan testified before a grand jury investigating Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia. He criticized Trump for falsely claiming the election was stolen in the state, which led to his family receiving death threats.
Duncan warned that the “MAGA crowd” has manipulated Georgia’s state elections board to introduce new rules that could undermine the integrity of the voting process. Despite research showing that a majority of Republican voters believe the 2020 election was stolen, Duncan emphasized the need for the country and his party to rise above such divisive tactics.
With the upcoming election looming, Duncan’s concerns highlight the ongoing battle to protect the integrity of the electoral process and defend against baseless claims of fraud.
