Sen. Lamar Alexander sees no evidence of voter fraud: Biden should receive briefings

Knoxville News

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Retiring U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander isn’t ready to say Vice President Joe Biden is president-elect, but he’s close. In the meantime, he said, the former vice president should have been getting presidential briefings for weeks.

Alexander made the comments Thursday afternoon in an exclusive interview with Knox News, his first about the election.

“It looks like he has a very good chance to be (president-elect),” he said about Biden, “and if there’s any chance that he will be — and it looks like there is a very good chance — I believe the Trump administration ought to provide the Biden administration with all the transition materials and sources and meetings necessary so we have a smooth transition so both sides are ready on day one.”

Alexander made his comments before the Georgia secretary of state's office reaffirmed the state’s presidential election results Thursday night after a week-long hand recount. The count confirmed Biden’s victory, earning him16 electoral votes and flipping the Deep South state for the first time since 1992.
