Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, who former President Donald Trump asked to "find" 11,780 votes ahead of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, will testify in one of the House committee's upcoming public hearings later this month.
Trump called Raffensperger, a Republican and Georgia's top elections official, on Jan. 2, 2021 and repeated more than 30 times that he won the election, according to a recording of the call. "So, look," Trump said. "All I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes," or more votes than President Biden received in Georgia.
Raffensperger later told "60 Minutes" that Trump and the other White House official on the call, including chief of staff Mark Meadows, were "just trying to intimidate me and-- cajole me into something."
