Chairwoman McDaniel: Google is Suppressing Republican Get Out the Vote Emails
BARTIROMO: You also say that Google is suppressing millions of election-related e-mails. Just in the last month, the Committee is accusing the company of marking more than 22 million e-mails as spam, including get out the vote messages. You're exploring legal options. What are you going to do?
CHAIRWOMAN MCDANIEL: We spent the day on the phone with attorneys yesterday. We are very seriously looking at how we can sue Google. Google controls 53% of the e-mails in the United States. And they are suppressing right now Republican get out the vote e-mails ahead of this election. We know this, for the past 10 months, the last four days of every month, all of our e-mails go undeliverable. Zero percent deliverability. This is outrageous. It is voter suppression by big tech and we have to find a way to hold them accountable. The RNC is looking to sue. We are hoping to have an announcement soon on that. But this is another reason why we need Republicans to take back the House and the Senate. Because we need to find a way to keep big tech's thumb off the scale in our elections and our democracy. Because they should not be able to suppress e-mails that we're sending to people who asked for us to send these e-mails. They have to opt in, Maria. They have to opt in. So, Google is saying oh, it's a Republican e-mail, we're going to suppress it, we’re going to put it in spam - or we're not going to deliver it.
