CNN has reached out to Trump’s representatives to comment.
The request marks Trump as the latest example of voting through the same process, which he repeatedly tried to defame during the 2020 election without evidence. Trump and then First Lady Melania Trump also requested a mail-in ballot for the primary election in Florida’s election gust.
Trump tweeted in July, “With universal mail-in voting (not absentee voting, which is good), 2020 will be the most vague and disappointing election in history. It will be a big dilemma for the USA.” Trump tweeted in July. “Delay the election until people can vote properly, safely and securely ???”
In reality, there is no evidence that mail-in voting is fraudulent. While mail-in ballots make up rare cases of voter fraud, they are nowhere near a widespread problem in the U.S. electoral system. Part of the mail ballot fraud is rarely seen as states have systems and procedures in place to prevent fraud, theft and voter fraud.
Despite his public rhetoric, Trump has maintained that Florida’s voting system is secure, tweeting last year: “You vote by mail or absentee voting, even if the electoral system in Florida is safe and secure, triad and true.” Florida’s voting system has been cleansed (we beat the Democrats’ efforts in return), so I encourage everyone in Florida to vote and vote by mail! “
“So Florida got a great Republican governor and it had a great Republican governor (before that) … and for a long time they’ve been able to complete absentee ballots very professionally. Florida is different from other states,” Trump said. , Before criticizing vote-by-mail efforts in Nevada and New York, led by Democratic governors.
