President-elect Donald Trump has filed a lawsuit in Polk County, Iowa, on Monday night against pollster Ann Selzer and the Des Moines Register, accusing them of 'brazen election interference' and fraud under the Iowa Consumer Fraud Act. The lawsuit pertains to a final pre-election poll released just days before the election, which showed Vice President Kamala Harris leading in Iowa by 3 points. Trump, who ultimately won Iowa by 13 points, alleges that the inaccurate poll misled voters and was intentionally deceptive. He described the poll as 'fraud' and 'election interference.'
