In an interview with the Daily Beast, the man behind the conspiracy theory that there were over 3 million votes cast illegally in the 2016 presidential election claims he has the names of those voters and he is considering releasing them.
Back on Nov. 13, Gregg Phillips, who claims to head up a voter-fraud reporting group, Link to tweet
?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">stated on Twitter, We have verified more than three million votes cast by non-citizens. We are joining .@TrueTheVote to initiate legal action. #unrigged.
Since that time, and with no information provided to back up his claim, his boast has been retweeted over 10,000 times and back when it was still new caught the eye of Alex Jones who runs the conspiracy website Info Wars, who then spread it far and wide on Nov. 14.
It is believed that Trump, who has a relationship with Jones, picked it up from there and has been using it since then to diminish his loss in the popular vote which also hovers around 3 million votes.
While there is absolutely no evidence of wide-scale voter fraud taking place, that hasnt stopped Phillips from now stating that he can identify those voters.
