Donald Trump claimed that “massive fraud” was occurring in the battleground states, a claim that was firmly rejected by the county district attorneys.
President Trump wrote on his social network, Truth Social: Police are on the way!
Twenty minutes later, he followed up with a post claiming, without providing any evidence, that they were also on the scene in Detroit, Michigan.
Pennsylvania (home to Philadelphia) and Michigan are battleground states, as are Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, and Wisconsin. The Harris/Waltz and Trump/Vance campaigns visited these seven states over 200 times and spent a combined $1 billion on advertising during the election.
District Attorney Larry Krasner fired back at Trump’s claims, telling his team that “these allegations have no factual basis.”
“We have been fielding complaints and allegations of misconduct all day,” he wrote to X. “If there are facts that support Donald J. Trump’s outlandish accusations, we want to know them now. And fast.” “We’re not holding our breath.”
The Trump campaign’s messaging mirrors the 2020 election, in which the campaign has filed lawsuits alleging voter fraud in several states, including Pennsylvania.
The biggest disruption of the election season was an arson attack that damaged ballots in two postal boxes near the Oregon-Washington border.
But the lack of significant issues did not stop early voting, nor did Trump, or Republicans, from calling it a voter fraud and obstruction.
Republicans tried to challenge the delayed collection of early ballots, but a U.S. judge dismissed the allegations, saying the election results were “fair.” The election.”
Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris urged voters not to be fooled by the Trump campaign’s tactics to sow doubt about the election.
