Lieutenant Governor of Texas Offers $ 1 Million for Evidence of Election Fraud
Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick is offering a reward of up to $ 1 million for information leading to an arrest and conviction for fraud in the 2020 presidential election. More details about the unusual offer told the publication Fox News.
“I support President Donald Trump's efforts to expose fraud in the presidential election and his commitment to ensuring that all legal votes are counted and all illegal ones are disqualified,” Patrick said. “Detecting fraud is important not only to determining the outcome of this election, but also to preserving our democracy and restoring faith in elections in the future.”
There is no evidence of fraud in the 2020 elections yet. Officials from both political parties publicly stated that the elections were relatively successful, and international observers confirmed that there were no serious violations.
Jim Clancy, the former chairman of the Texas Ethics Commission, criticized the idea of paying a monetary bounty, saying it would be wrong to pay money to prove Trump's dubious claims of fraud.

“This can be regarded as a contribution to Donald Trump’s campaign. That’s his problem,” Clancy said.
But Sherri Sylvester, Patrick's spokesman, disagrees with Clancy. She said the proposal was about falsifying voting results, "regardless of the election results," and restoring public confidence in the electoral process.
Most Republicans are not ready to push Trump to accept the election results, even though there is no evidence of fraud.
