No letter — and we've gotten a lot of letters from the Department of Justice over the past year — not a single one of them said that we were under investigation for anything. … What's not helpful is the constant barrage of attacks and harassment and accusations, baseless accusations, that do nothing to help secure our elections.

Um, no, I was not aware, but I guess I am now. … It would be nice if the good folks at the DOJ would focus on actual problems instead of baselessly harassing election officials.
