Texas officials have said they will launch a “forensic audit” of the results of the 2020 election in its four largest counties, following pressure from former President Donald Trump. Despite winning the state in the 2020 election, Trump wrote to Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Thursday and pushed him to audit the results. “Despite my big win in Texas, I hear Texans want an election audit,” the former president said in a statement. “You know your fellow Texans have big questions about the November 2020 Election. Late on Thursday, the Texas Secretary of State’s office confirmed that they would audit the results of four counties; Houston, Dallas, Tarrant, and Collin, local news outlet NBC DFW reported. Houston and Dallas typically lean Democrat, and although Tarrant has traditionally voted Republican, Joe Biden won the county in 2020.
