Gingrich backs Trump claim of rigged election, urges poll-watching
Newt Gingrich should know better.
“Without the unending one-sided assault of the news media, Trump would be beating Hillary Clinton by 15 points,” Gingrich told ABC News’ Martha Raddatz on “This Week.”
“So to suggest to us that people who are concerned about honest elections are somehow nutty, I think is a mistake,” he said.

Gingrich emphasized that the rigging is not at the local level: “This is not about election officials at the precinct level,” he said.
Nevertheless, he said voters should monitor polling stations as Trump has encouraged because past elections have been “stolen.”
“You’ve got to go out, and you’ve got to get your friends, and you’ve got to get everybody you know, and you’ve got to watch the polling booths because I hear too many stories about Pennsylvania, certain areas,” Trump said at a rally in Pennsylvania in October.
