The election fraud lawsuits have started again.

The election fraud lawsuits have started again.

…

But Trump chose to stoke the flames Wednesday morning, posting on Truth Social that “Pennsylvania is cheating, and getting caught, at large scale levels rarely seen before.”

“Law enforcement must act, NOW!” he added.

Bucks County officials confirmed to NBC Philadelphia that they had been notified of the lawsuit, but did not provide further comment. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, meanwhile, shot back at the Republican presidential nominee, highlighting that Trump and his allies have spent the last four years actively corroding public trust in U.S. elections—and that they are currently warming up their second conspiracy to undermine the 2024 election results.

    but county officials had observed that there were complaints on social media (shared by the Trump campaign) about long lines to obtain mail-in ballots on Tuesday, the last day of their availability

      Entire states vote by mail and they work out fine. It’s a paper record. He should like that after all the voting machine conspiracy crap he’s been floating.

        It’s not about what he likes, it’s about what can erode public trust in the process enough that people will reject the entire system and Trump can declare himself president without having to worry about the will of the people.
