Sharp rhetoric from a respected Republican election chief underscores Donald Trump's sway over the GOP 18 months after he lost the presidency.
"I think it's irresponsible when Republicans say an election was stolen and don't have evidence," LaRose told journalists with the Cleveland Plain Dealer in mid-November 2020 as then-President Donald Trump refused to concede his loss and seethed about widespread fraud.
Eighteen months later, Trump is still raging about fraud, but LaRose has embraced the former President's endorsement of his reelection bid ahead of Tuesday's primary in the Buckeye State.
