RNC asks job applicants if they believe 2020 election was stolen in ‘litmus test’ (The Guardian)Republican National Committee, now run by Trump loyalists, does not deny that staff seeking to be rehired are grilled on ‘big lie’
A spokesperson for the Republican National Committee and Donald Trump did not deny a Washington Post report that said prospective RNC employees are being asked if they believe the 2020 election was stolen, constituting a “litmus test” as the 2024 election approaches.
“Candidates who worked on the frontline in battleground states or are currently in states where fraud allegations have been prevalent were asked about their work experience,” Danielle Alvarez, a spokesperson for the RNC and Trump, said in a statement.
“We want experienced staff with meaningful views on how elections are won and lost and real experience-based opinions about what happens in the trenches.”
