Virginia officials find misreported 2020 election votes added to Trump’s total

Biden received 1,648 fewer votes than he should have and Trump was awarded 2,327 too many, county director of elections says

As Donald Trump continues to pursue the lie that his 2020 presidential election defeat was the result of electoral fraud, elections officials in Virginia have admitted some results there were improperly reported - resulting in an artificially inflated total for Trump while votes were actually taken away from Joe Biden.

Eric Olsen, director of elections for Prince William county, said: Election results were improperly reported by the previous administration during the 2020 election.
