‘Two days after the election, on November 6, the defendant called [REDACTED NAME OF PERSON #46] the Chairman of the Pennsylvania Republican Party—the entity responsible for supporting Republican candidates in the commonwealth at the federal, state, and local level. [REDACTED NAME OF PERSON #46] had a prior relationship with the defendant, including having represented him in litigation in Pennsylvania after the 2016 presidential election. The defendant asked [REDACTED NAME OF PERSON #46] how, without fraud, he had gone from winning Pennsylvania on election day to trailing in the days afterward. Consistent with what Campaign staff already had told the defendant, [REDACTED NAME OF PERSON #46] confirmed that it was not fraud: it was that there were roughly 1,750,000 mail-in ballots still being counted in Pennsylvania, which were expected to be eighty percent for Biden. Over the following two months, the defendant spread false claims of fraud in Pennsylvania anyway.
