"On one hand, Trump has embarked on a messaging campaign to cast doubt on any results that seem unfavourable. Part of what the Trump administration is doing is trying to create the impression of fraud and mismanagement in local elections so that they can argue eventually that some outcomes are not legitimate or real or should be discounted, Traugott told Al Jazeera."
"President Donald Trump has long been fixated on how voting in the United States is administered, claiming without evidence that his 2020 presidential election loss was the result of malfeasance. Fast forward more than five years, and Trump is set to be in office for one of the most consequential midterm races in recent times. list of 3 itemsend of list It is unclear how the US president might involve himself in the midterms,"
President Trump continues to focus on how voting is administered and has promoted unsubstantiated claims that the 2020 result involved malfeasance. The November midterms will determine control of the House and Senate and therefore affect his ability to advance his agenda. The strategy is twofold: a messaging campaign aimed at sowing doubt about unfavorable results and efforts to test the limits of federal intervention in election law and administration. Legal challenges are likely if federal action is attempted, with repeated appeals potentially reaching the Supreme Court. Trump has publicly advocated nationalising voting.
