Donald Trump had signed legal documents that he knew included false voter fraud statistics, according to federal court filings.

According to The Washington Post, this information was included in the 18-page opinion written by U.S. District Court Judge David O. Carter over the resistance of Trump ally and conservative lawyer John Eastman to a subpoena for emails from the House committee probing the Capitol attack on January 6 last year.

Carter indicated on Wednesday that several documents between Trump's allies must be made public as they showed that the group was involved in "knowing misrepresentation of voter fraud numbers in Georgia" when seeking to overturn the results of the election in court.

Carter wrote that the emails showed that the specific numbers of voter fraud were false. However, the judge said the former president continued to tout those numbers.

Carter noted that the court found that the emails were "related to and in furtherance of a conspiracy to defraud the United States." Last March, Carter said Donald Trump had committed federal crimes "more likely than not" when the former president interrupted the congressional count of electoral college votes on January 6, 2021.

Emails of False Voter Fraud Claims in Georgia

According to the judge, the email exchanges centered on Donald Trump's legal team's plan to use the same false voter fraud numbers it had used in a state court suit in December 2020, when they alleged that Fulton County, Georgia, "improperly counted a number of votes including 10,315 deceased people, 2,560 felons, and 2,423 unregistered voters," NBC reported.

The judge noted that in one of the email exchanges, John Eastman said Donald Trump was aware that the number of voter fraud cases they claimed in a federal lawsuit in Georgia was "inaccurate."

Carter added that Trump signed off on the lawsuit, "swearing under oath" that the numbers were correct anyway. According to Carter, Eastman said in an email that Trump has been made aware that some of the allegations have been inaccurate, but the former president still signed a verification.

Carter added that Trump and his attorneys filed a complaint with the same inaccurate numbers "without rectifying, clarifying, or otherwise changing them."

Carter said four other documents must be made public as they imply that the main goal of an unspecified legal filing was to delay the certification of the 2020 election results.

Meanwhile, an attorney for Eastman and Trump has yet to comment on the matter. Carter believed that both Donald Trump and John Eastman most likely knew what they were doing was wrong. In a ruling in March, the judge wrote that the "illegality of the plan was obvious."

Donald Trump's Voter Fraud Claims

Donald Trump has insisted on his unsupported claims of voter fraud after the House committee voted to subpoena him. As posted on his Truth Social platform, Trump repeated his rejection of the investigation. However, he did not mention the subpoena.

Al Jazeera reported that the subpoena was unanimously approved following its ninth public hearing on the events surrounding the Capitol riot and Trump's role in it.

The former president also claimed that he had requested and authorized the deployment of troops to the U.S. Capitol for the rally. However, he said Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi blocked the request.

As of now, there has been no evidence of any voter fraud that could have swayed the election results.
