Chris Christie: Electoral College Challenge Will Go ‘Nowhere’ Without Evidence of Voter Fraud

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is confident President-elect Joe Biden will be sworn in on Jan. 20 despite Republican efforts to object to his Electoral College win.

ABC’s Martha Raddatz noted Republican senators are being joined by at least 140 Republicans in the House who will challenge the certification of Biden’s electoral votes.

She mentioned Vice President Mike Pence’s approval of the effort.

Raddatz asked Christie why they are moving forward even though they know it will go nowhere in a Democrat controlled House.

“The thing that matters the most is the reason it will go nowhere is because there’s been no evidence of widespread fraud and that’s been determined by Republican and Democrat governors across the country,” Christie said during his appearance on “This Week.”

He added, “It’s been determined, most importantly, by the Republican attorney general of the United States, Bill Barr, who no one can say has not been a loyal fighter for the president and so the facts are the facts and that’s what I’ve been saying since election night. If there’s evidence show us. There’s been no evidence shown and that’s why Joe Biden will be confirmed next week.”
