Republican Rep. Scott Perry from Pennsylvania played a key role to help former President Donald Trump to oust then-acting attorney general Jeffrey Rosen in an attempt to overturn the election results in Georgia, reported The New York Times on Saturday, January 23.
The Republican from York County, Perry, objected to the election results in Arizona and Pennsylvania on January 6. According to the report by NYT, he introduced Trump to Jeffrey Bossert Clark, the acting chief of the Department of Justice's (DOJ) civil division. The justice department lawyer was working with the former president to find ways to raise doubts about the 2020 presidential election results, the report said.
