Dear Attorney General Barr,
On Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla, Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) said President Trump should continue to fight on despite it looking like Joe Biden might win the 2020 Election.
Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., told Newsmax TV on Thursday that Fox News' calling Arizona for Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden "doesn't seem appropriate" since about "a million votes" had yet to be counted.
Biggs told "John Bachman Now" that when Fox called Arizona for Biden on election night, many voters in the state were still waiting to cast their ballot, and about a million votes that had been cast hadn't yet been counted.
Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) announced Wednesday that he believes President Donald Trump will win the state of Arizona in the 2020 presidential election and that "this race NEVER should have been called" on Tuesday night.
"I am still optimistic about President Trump's chances to capture Arizona's electoral votes when all legal ballots have been processed and tabulated," said Biggs in a statement about the state of Arizona's outstanding votes on Wednesday.
