Flake slams Trump for doubting vote count: There is no evidence of 'electoral corruption'

Outgoing Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) on Friday dismissed President Trump's accusation that "electoral corruption" is taking place in Arizona.

"There is no evidence of 'electoral corruption' in Arizona, Mr. President," Flake tweeted late Friday night. "Thousands of dedicated Arizonans work in a non-partisan fashion every election cycle to ensure that every vote is counted.

"We appreciate their service," he added.

His comments came only hours after Trump criticized the vote count effort in Arizona, as officials continue to tally votes in the Senate race between Rep. Kyrsten Sinema (D) and Rep. Martha McSally (R).
