"I Just Want 11,780 Votes" - How Trump Pressed Georgia To Overturn Biden Victory

Donald Trump has been recorded pressurising Georgia's Secretary of State to overturn US president-elect Joe Biden's victory in the state. The Washington Post obtained a recording of a phone call between Trump and Brad Raffensperger, during which Trump asked him to "find 11,780 votes".
