Amid run for Congress, Loren Culp continues to push election fraud narrative
Amid a campaign to unseat Washington Republican Congressman Dan Newhouse, former gubernatorial candidate Loren Culp has maintained his insistence that Jay Inslees victory in 2020 was illegitimate.
Culp, a former police chief for the town of Republic, lost to Inslee by a wide 56% to 43% margin in 2020, separated by over 545,000 votes. But even as the first results came in, he began to echo claims made by then-President Donald Trump that the election was rife with fraud.
Culps campaign then filed a lawsuit asking for injunctive relief and demanding an audit of the states paper ballots, vote counting machines, and voting results in King, Clark, Thurston, Pierce, Kitsap, and Skagit counties.
Less than a month after filing its lawsuit, the campaign abruptly withdrew it, alleging that people they had lined up to testify had backed out. Despite levying claims that he had clear evidence that thousands of ballots had been cast on behalf of deceased voters, no such evidence was ever produced.

And the GOP wonders why very few in this state vote for them.
