Former President Donald Trump has raised the alarm over alleged voter fraud in Pennsylvania, claiming that York County has received “thousands of potentially fraudulent voter registration forms and mail-in ballot applications” from a third-party group.
His statements, posted on social media, have ignited a firestorm of debate and concern as the state gears up for the upcoming elections.
Trump’s post also referenced Lancaster County, which he claimed had already been caught with 2,600 fake ballots and forms, all purportedly submitted by the same individual.
“Really bad ‘stuff,’” he stated emphatically, urging law enforcement to take immediate action to investigate these claims. “WHAT IS GOING ON IN PENNSYLVANIA?” he demanded, suggesting that the integrity of the electoral process in the state is at risk.
“Wow! York County, Pennsylvania, received THOUSANDS of potentially FRAUDULENT Voter Registration Forms and Mail-In Ballot Applications from a third party group. This is on top of Lancaster County being caught with 2600 Fake Ballots and Forms, all written by the same person. Really bad “stuff.” WHAT IS GOING ON IN PENNSYLVANIA??? Law Enforcement must do their job, immediately!!! WOW,” he tweeted.
The former president’s accusations have sparked a mix of outrage and skepticism among political commentators and election officials.
Critics argue that such claims can undermine public confidence in the electoral process, while Trump supporters are rallying behind his call for action.
In response to Trump’s allegations, election officials in Pennsylvania have emphasized their commitment to ensuring a secure and transparent electoral process.
