Internet slams RNC co-chair Lara Trump as she asserts election integrity is 'vital' in current cycle

WASHINGTON, DC: Lara Trump, the co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC), stated that maintaining election integrity is 'vital' in the current cycle and promised to commit resources to make sure nothing is left to 'chance', according to The Hill.

During Fox News’ 'Sunday Morning Futures' on April 7, Lara Trump said, "But when you talk about election integrity, it is vital. It is the No. 1 thing that we are focused on, aside from getting out the vote, which, of course, Donald Trump himself will do for us."

Lara Trump argues election integrity is 'vital' in this current cycle

She added, "We are ensuring that this election, we are leaving nothing to chance. We never before at the RNC have had an Election Integrity Division. All of our resources, we can put into this division as needed."

She also brought up the previous day's campaign fundraiser for former President Trump, which was predicted to bring in around $50 million. According to Lara Trump, a portion of the money will go toward guaranteeing that poll workers receive training and that lawyers are present at every required voting precinct.

She said, "We are making sure that we leave nothing to chance because we have to understand the importance of this election. People are not sitting on the sidelines anymore. They understand what’s at stake. It’s a must-win election. And from the election integrity perspective, we’re focused on it like a laser at the RNC."

Notably, in an appearance with Lara Trump on Sunday, RNC Chair Michael Whatley stated that the committee is collaborating with state secretaries, boards of elections, and legislatures to make sure 'we get the rules of the road right'.

Whatley said, "And if they’re not, we’re going to go file lawsuits. We have already filed over 80 different lawsuits in 24 states to make sure that we have the ground ready to go for safe elections."

He further added, "What we want are fair, accurate, secure and transparent elections. And when we have it, then we’re going to protect the sanctity of that ballot. We’re going to make it easy to vote and hard to cheat."

Notably, after receiving Donald Trump's endorsement, Whatley and Lara Trump were chosen as the RNC's newest leaders in March.
