	Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Government Reform

We'll never know the depths of 2020 election fraud

Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the former White House press secretary under Trump, has run a low-profile Arkansas gubernatorial campaign with only sporadic public comments to the media. But when the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette newspaper asked her this spring whether she believes the election was stolen from Trump, Sanders declined to affirm the election's legitimacy--saying, "I don't think we'll ever know the depths of how much fraud existed." She continued: "We know there is fraud in every election. How far and wide it went, I don't think that will be something that will be ever determined."

Sanders didn't go nearly as far as her obscure primary opponent, who flatly declared the election stolen. Still, she chose to vaguely cast doubt on the outcome. (There is no evidence of widespread fraud in the 2020 election, certainly not enough to have changed the winner in any state.) The Sanders campaign did not respond to a request for comment.

As undergraduate, fought for student voting rights

One nationally prominent Republican once took the opposite stance on student voting. As an undergraduate at Ouachita Baptist University, Sarah Huckabee--now White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders--sued to allow students to vote after being one of more than 900 purged from the county's rolls. "It's almost like taxation without representation," she said at the time. "They thought that because we were young that they could walk all over us, but obviously that's not the case."
