Nevada GOP Secretary of State responds scathingly after party censures her over election 'fraud'

Nevada Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske, a Republican, strongly pushed back after the state GOP voted to censure her over its baseless belief that she was complicit in allowing President Joe Biden to win the 2020 election through "massive fraud."

Cegavske is just the latest GOPer to face censure from fellow Republicans for accurately pointing out that former President Donald Trump's claims of widespread voter fraud are groundless. Despite constantly repeating the extraordinary allegations, the former president and his loyalist supporters have failed to provide credible evidence to support those claims.

On Saturday, the Nevada Republican Party voted to censure the secretary of state.

In a statement, Cegavske defended herself and pointed out, once again, that the claims of widespread fraud are without merit.

"Regrettably, members of my own political party have decided to censure me simply because they are disappointed with the outcome of the 2020 election," she said.

"My job is to carry out the duties of my office as enacted by the Nevada Legislature, not carry water for the state GOP or put my thumb on the scale of democracy."
