 Trump: "Sixty-six thousand votes, each one of these is far more than we need. Sixty-six thousand votes in Georgia were cast by individuals under the legal voting age."

While Trump does claim 66,000 underaged people voted, the state says there were none. The turnout of young voters was one of the stories of the election. Traditionally, young people do not turn register and vote in anywhere near such numbers, but they accounted for 21 percent of all Georgia voters this year, and they tended to vote for Democratic candidates. Thus, if Trump could erase the votes of the young people, he could reverse the outcome of the election. It is not wrong to wonder if this is the reason Trump is going after these votes. It is not that they were illegal, but that they were not votes for him.
