John Eastman denies helping failed Senate candidate

Doubly indicted and facing disbarment, California attorney John Eastman reportedly lent his expertise to another Republican Party candidate who lost an election — though the lawyer himself quickly disputed this claim.

In the 2024 general election, incumbent Wisconsin Sen. Tammy Baldwin, a Democrat, bested her GOP rival, bank executive Eric Hovde, by a small but substantial margin of some 28,000-plus votes with 99% of results in — just shy of a one percentage point victory.

On Tuesday, exactly one week after losing the election, Hovde admitted his “loss” in a lengthy video posted on X (formerly Twitter).

The failed candidate noted that the narrow defeat would legally allow him to request a recount under Badger State law but expressed some measure of doubt as to whether he would actually request one. At the same time, Hovde also cast doubt on the integrity of the election.
