‘Huge victory for our country’: Mike Lindell thrilled after jury tells him to pay ex-Dominion voting exec $2.3 million
MyPillow chief Mike Lindell, a staunch supporter of President Donald Trump throughout the Democrat lawfare against him, has been told by a federal jury to pay an ex-voting systems executive $2.3 million in a defamation case.
Lindell immediately called it a victory, since the plaintiff had demanded $62.7 million, and confirmed the amount awarded will be appealed.
Lindell was found liable by a jury in the far-left enclave of Denver for claiming election fraud in the 2020 election.
He was sued by Eric Coomer, ex-official at Dominion Voting Systems, a company that was under fire from a number of critics after the 2020 election results.
In that election, there was confirmed fraud in multiple cases as well as significant levels of undue influence. For one, Mark Zuckerberg dished out hundreds of millions of dollars to local election officials who often used the cash to recruit voters in Democrat districts. Further, the FBI actually interfered in the election by instructing media outlets to suppress the damaging information about the Bidens revealed in a laptop computer that was abandoned at a repair shop by Hunter Biden. Polling showed the influenced probably cost Trump that election.
The jury claimed Lindell’s comments were “baseless conspiracy theories claiming election fraud in the 2020 election.”
Coomer claimed Lindell and his companies “helped spread a conspiracy theory that he rigged the election against President Donald Trump,” according to locally published reports.
Coomer’s lawyer said he was thrilled with the verdict.
