He also noted that Trump\u2019s first problem was that the 2020 election really was not close, and that recounts could not have changed the outcome.<br \/>\nGinsberg said Trump\u2019s campaign had dozens of opportunities to legally challenge the election results, despite its complaint that it did not have its day in court.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbout half of those cases \u2026 were dismissed at the procedural stage,\u201d he said. In cases that were not immediately dismissed, \u201cin no instance did a court find that the charges of fraud were real,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Ginsberg said post-election reviews in the six battleground states, including the \u2018somewhat farcical\u2019 Cyber Ninja\u2019s case in Arizona, found no credible evidence of fraud.<\/p>\n<p>The hearing was the second of several planned by the Jan. 6 committee that focused on how Trump actively spread false information about the 2020 election outcome \u2013 what has become known as the \u201cbig lie\u201d \u2013 in the run up to the Jan. 6 insurrection. In the year since its creation, the committee has conducted more than 1,000 interviews, seeking critical information and documents from people witness to, or involved in, the violence that day.<\/p>\n<p>Stream your PBS favorites with the PBS app: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/to.pbs.org\/2Jb8twG\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/to.pbs.org\/2Jb8twG<\/a><br \/>\nFind more from PBS NewsHour at <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/newshour\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/newshour<\/a><br \/>\nSubscribe to our YouTube channel: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2HfsCD6\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/bit.ly\/2HfsCD6<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Follow us:<br \/>\nFacebook: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.pbs.org\/newshour\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.pbs.org\/newshour<\/a><br \/>\nTwitter: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/newshour\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/newshour<\/a><br \/>\nInstagram: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/newshour\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/newshour<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republican attorney Benjamin Ginsberg, an expert in election law who played a key role in the 2000 Florida recount, testified on June 13 as the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack presented its findings to the public.
