Today, U.S. Senator Chris Coons (D-Del.) joined Wolf Blitzer on CNN to discuss continued insistence from the Trump Administration, including White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer, that millions of illegal votes were tallied in the Presidential election.

"Once again, we see the President focused on size -- on the size of crowd that turned out at his inauguration versus President Obama's inauguration, the size of the popular vote and whether or not Hillary Clinton won the popular vote or he did, and he and his representatives Sean Spicer and Kellyanne Conway have presented the suggestion that millions of people voted illegally as an "alternative fact,' said Senator Coons. "It's not an alternative fact, it is a baseless lie."
