DECATUR, Ill. (WAND) – President Donald Trump is doubling down on his claims mail-in voting will result in fraud during the upcoming election.
On Tuesday, the president tweeted mail-in voting will result in the “most corrupt election” in U.S. history. Over the weekend on Fox News Trump claimed mail-in voting would “rig the election.”
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Illinois) recently told WAND News voters should have choices in how they vote.
“Forty-percent of Illinois voting is early voting by mail,” Durbin said. “Have you heard any claims of fraud? I haven’t.”
States are turning to mail-in voting as the COVID-19 pandemic continues. Election day is Nov. 3, 2020.
