President-Elect Joe Biden was projected to be the winner after securing over 270 Electoral College votes.

“President Trump’s pursuit of voter fraud is not only essential to determine the outcome of this election, it is essential to maintain our democracy and restore faith in future elections,”

“I support President Trump’s efforts to identify voter fraud in the presidential election and his commitment to making sure that every legal vote is counted and every illegal vote is disqualified,” Patrick said on Tuesday.

USA Today reports that the governor said that “anyone who provides information that leads to an arrest and conviction will be paid a minimum of $25,000.”
