Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows says he is heading to Nevada to talk about “election integrity.”
On Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast on Wednesday, Meadows said he plans to make the trip over the weekend to a state in which his old boss, former President Donald Trump, sought to overturn the results.
The goal, he said, is “to put together a plan in four counties out there to make sure that every vote — every legal vote is counted.” Meadows did not specify the four counties.
Meadows, a former congressman from North Carolina, is now a senior partner at the Conservative Partnership Institute.

The group issued a statement on Wednesday touting its Election Integrity Network and how thousands of Virginia “patriots” formed “election integrity task forces in every major county” after a successful election for Republicans in the state, including in the governor’s race.
EIN is “soon to publish a Citizens Guide to Election Integrity Infrastructure and training videos to help citizens know how to protect the integrity of the elections in your state and your local area,” the post added.

All this comes after a contentious 2020 election in which former President Donald Trump and his allies raised the alarm about what they said was widespread fraud and irregularities in several states and filed a wave of unsuccessful lawsuits. However, state and federal officials, including those in Trump’s own administration, have said there is no evidence to support claims of a stolen election.
Meadows, like Bannon, has been subpoenaed by the House committee investigating the Capitol riot, but he remains busy. He said he met Wednesday morning with Tudor Dixon, a Republican who says she is running for Michigan governor in the 2022 election, and encouraged Republicans to focus on “policies that work,” including those related to education.
