MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell is auditing Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ historic election wins in last months midterms.
QUICK FACTS:
- Mike Lindell, MyPillow CEO and loyal Donald Trump fan, announced he is auditing Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ recent election victory.
- “I don’t believe it,” Lindell said on his Frank Speech website Tuesday night. “So it’s just going to show everybody—just like we always tell you about Democrats where they stole their elections…I’m going to find out if Dade County—what happened there.”
- DeSantis defeated his Democrat opponent in the midterms by more than 1.5 million votes, winning 62 of Florida’s 67 counties including Democrat stronghold Miami-Dade County.
- “What we’re doing now is, I’m going after Dade County in the 2022 election. And everyone says, ‘Well, why would you go after Dade County?” Lindell said. “This is where Ron DeSantis won Dade County, that’s a Republican won Dade County. Well, for me, I look at deviations, everybody. That’s a deviation.”
- Some conservatives were critical of the move and stood with DeSantis, saying Lindell was touting “lunatic” ideas.
- “Lindell needs to go away,” former Newsmax TV host John Cardillo said. “He’s being interviewed by a guy he funds, on his own network, spewing lunatic conspiracy theories. DeSantis did well in FL because he did an amazing job for FL. Lindell’s BS is pathetic, and he should stop listening to grifters using him for $$$.”
MYPILLOW CEO MIKE LINDELL ON AUDITING DESANTIS’ HISTORIC VICTORY:
“I am investigating the machines,” Lindell said, “they don’t care if you are a Democrat or a Republican.”
BACKGROUND:
- Lindell has been one of the most outspoken critics of the 2020 presidential elections, hosting a “cyber symposium” in August 2021 to present “irrefutable” evidence during a two-day event showing voter fraud and promising to give a $5 million reward to anyone who would prove him wrong.
- The MyPillow CEO was hit with boycotts against his company’s products in 2021. He was later sued by Dominion Voting System for his allegedly defaming “false accusations” that the election services company committed election fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
- Last month, Lindell announced he was launching a campaign for Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman against Ronna McDaniel.
- “I’m 100% running for the RNC chairman against Ronna McDaniel, 100%, I am all in Steve,” Lindell said on former Trump insider Steve Bannon’s show. “One of the big donors said to me, he said, ‘Mike everyone wants you to be the head of the RNC, some of them just don’t know it yet.’”
