Rob Portman is going on the record in a very public way. The Ohio GOP Senator penned an opinion piece for The Cincinnati Enquirer where he writes, “there is no evidence as of now of any widespread fraud or irregularities that would change the result in any state.”

States have now completed counting votes and most battleground states will have certified their election results as of this week. Some state recounts have been completed and those remaining are expected to be completed within the next two weeks. Based on all the information currently available, neither the final lawful vote counts nor the recounts have led to a different outcome in any state. In other words, the initial determination showing Joe Biden with enough electoral votes to win has not changed.

Portman also calls on the General Services Administration to release the funds for the transition.
