Former President Donald Trump, who declared his dissent in the 2020 presidential election, is laying the groundwork to challenge the results if he loses, citing the possibility of fraud election by the Democratic Party even before the presidential election on the 5th (local time. ).
The Daily Guardian reported on the 4th that former President Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, may try to overturn the results of the presidential election by saying that “many people who are not citizens on the voters’ list.” Immigrants without citizenship are said to be registered to vote through identity theft and document manipulation. The Republican National Committee (RNC) has already filed a lawsuit against several states, claiming that not all state governments have properly compiled their voter rolls.
However, the Guardian reported that several studies have shown that the number of non-citizen votes is very low.
Former President Trump also said in his final pre-election speech in Rites, Pennsylvania on the 3rd, “They (Democrats) will put all this money on (voting) machines and say maybe that it will take an additional 12 days for vote count results to arrive. out. “What do you think will happen in those 12 days? ” He raised a conspiracy theory that the Democratic Party could manipulate the results of the presidential election. He also wrote last month on TruthSocial, a social networking service (SNS) he created, “I found a major fraud taking place in Pennsylvania.” Pennsylvania has the most electoral votes (19) among the seven battleground states. Former President Trump’s side also cited rumors of tampering with vote counting machines and hacking as reasons for disapproval at the last presidential election. Dominion Election Systems, which makes software for vote counting machines, is said to have erased or altered the ballots cast for him.
However, the Washington Post reported that former President Trump’s claim was not true, saying that ballots were checked manually once again in areas where the machine was used.
The New York Times (NYT) and Reuters reported that American voters are experiencing terrible electoral pressure. Among the causes of stress were conflicts due to political polarization, disobedience to elections, and concerns about violence. Reuters reported on the 4th that as a result of recent interviews with 50 voters in seven battleground states, many of them expressed concerns about dissatisfaction with the election.
This fear was particularly strong among supporters of Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Kamala Harris. Former President Trump claimed that there was ‘election fraud’ after losing the 2020 presidential election, which led to the resignation of Congress on January 6 of the following year, and there were concerns that a similar situation could happen this time. too.
64% of Republican supporters were also concerned about acts of violence by Democratic supporters, showing distrust among voters, albeit to varying degrees.
74% of respondents predicted that violence would continue after the election, and 56% said they believed this election could be the end of American democracy.
