From an election denier's Twitter account, about the filing of frivolous claims

I am not posting the tweets because I am favor of election denial. I am posting the tweets that link to news articles about the flood of frivolous claims being filed against election boards.

The owner of the account is in favor of filing frivolous claims. I think it's important to know where these frivolous claims are being filed. You are free to disagree. Please allow other DUers to make up their own minds as to whether they want to know where the frivolous claims are being filed. Thank you.
