"There are people on both sides of the aisle who say the debate was, in fact "rigged."
On Thursday, Mark Penn, a former senior adviser to Bill and Hillary Clinton, called on ABC to launch a formal internal investigation into its news division's handling of this week's presidential debate. Penn raised concerns about potential efforts of "rigging the outcome of this debate."
"I don't know what they told the Harris campaign. I think the day after, suspicion here is really quite high, and I think a review of all their internal texts and emails really should be done by an independent party to find out to what extent they were planning on, in effect, you know, fact-checking just one candidate and in effect, rigging the outcome of this debate. I think the situation demands nothing less than that," he said."
