The Georgia Runoffs, Part 2: ‘I Have Zero Confidence in My Vote’

Since the presidential election was called for Joe Biden, President Trump has relentlessly attacked the integrity of the count in Georgia. He has floated conspiracy theories to explain away his loss and attacked Republican officials.
