Pa. elections 'have never been more safe and secure,' official says
Secretary of State Al Schmidt spoke on NBC's 'Meet the Press'Pittsburgh Post-Gazette link: https://www.post-gazette.com/news/election-2024/2024/05/26/pennsylvania-elections-voter-fraud-trump-biden/stories/202405240113
WASHINGTON — Pennsylvania’s chief elections administrator says the state’s elections have never been more safe and secure, even as voting procedures increasingly are questioned, prominent Republicans refuse to say they’ll accept the results, and 4 in 10 Pennsylvanians doubt that the 2020 presidential election was conducted fairly.
Secretary of State Al Schmidt said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday that the state now uses a paper trail and two audits to guarantee the outcome is correct.
“Elections have changed a lot in Pennsylvania in the last several years, but they've changed for the better,” he said. “Elections have never been more safe and secure with a voter-verifiable paper-ballot record of every vote that's cast that is used in not one but two audits after every election to ensure the tabulated results are accurate. So, they've changed a lot.”
Mr. Schmidt joined secretaries of states from three other battlegrounds — Arizona, Georgia and Michigan — to discuss the 2024 elections at a time when former President Donald Trump and his allies still insist against all evidence that the 2020 election was stolen.

... and then show up at the poll on election day and vote in person a second time. We know now that it's impossible to do that, but Chump and other MAGA idiots were spreading that rumor.
Almost every instance of election fraud when someone has gotten caught, it's turned out to be a Repuke pulling shit like that.
