The allegations came as part of a long speech by the Fox News host just hours after Trump took a massive step towards accepting defeat in the election by declaring he was allowing the transition to Joe Biden to begin.
Carlson named the election ‘not fair’ and stated that ‘the system was rigged against one candidate and in favor of another… in ways that were not hidden from view.’
‘The 2020 election was not fair,’ he repeated. ‘No honest person would claim that it was.’
The top-ranking cable news host started by claiming that electronic voting systems are unstable and called for a return to hand-counting paper ballots without the use of machines.

Carlson made the comments following a week in which he shattered attorney Sidney Powell - who was disavowed from Trump’s legal team on Sunday – for disappointing to present evidence to back up her allegations that Dominion Voting Systems were being manipulated to flip Trump votes for Biden.
‘You’ve heard a lot over the past few days about the security of our electronic voting machines. And this is a real issue, no matter who raises it or who tries to dismiss it out of hand as a conspiracy theory,’ he said.
‘Electronic voting is not as secure as traditional hand-counting, period. It never will be as secure. Voters can see this because it’s obvious, and it makes them nervous.’

Carlson accused US leaders of sowing the uncertainty over the machines’ legitimacy, and insisted that other countries have sought to avoid electronic voting because they too ‘know it undermines confidence in democracy’.

‘Going forward, we need to find out exactly what happened in this month’s presidential election. We need to find out no matter how long it takes the investigation to unfold or how much it costs,’ Carlson implored.

‘And once we get answers from that investigation, we ought to revert immediately to the traditional system of voting, the one that served our democracy for hundreds of years. What we are doing now is not working.’

President Trump and associates within his administration have repeatedly claimed since Election Day that the 2020 race was ‘rigged’.
Trump, who has not yet formally conceded the race, is similarly waging a series of legal fights in several battleground states to contest results and order recounts. So far, the pursuits have proved fruitless.
Equally, evidence of widespread voter fraud has still haven't been presented by Trump’s legal team, which is being originated by his attorney, Rudy Giuliani.
