Dominion Voting Systems Filed a Defamation Lawsuit Against Rudy Giuliani Over Voting Fraud Claims
Dominion Voting Systems has filed a defamation lawsuit against Rudy Giuliani, following months of baseless claims from Donald Trump’s personal lawyer that the company’s systems were rigged in the favor of the Democrats on 3 November’s presidential election.
The 107-page lawsuit, which was filed by the company in the Federal District Court in Washington, DC, on Monday, accused Mr. Giuliani of carrying out “a viral disinformation campaign about Dominion” that was made up of “demonstrably false” allegations.
The suit is seeking damages of more than $1.3bn (£1.15bn) and is based on more than 50 statements made by Mr. Giuliani on Twitter, his podcast, and in the media, according to The New York Times.
