With four days remaining until the elections in the US, allegations of voter fraud are once again dominating the headlines. This has raised concerns that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump may attempt to change the results in contested states. Trump, in his speeches at rallies, expresses his expectation of a great victory in the elections on November 5th and claims that he will only lose if it is a “rigged election.”

Unfounded claims of voter fraud in Pennsylvania have fueled concerns that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump will try to change the results in this state or other contested states that will determine the winner of the election. Nationwide and neck-and-neck opinion polls in seven states show that Trump is engaging in a tight competition with Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris just four days before the election. Similar unfounded claims spreading during this election Trump continues to attribute his loss in the 2020 election against Democrat President Joe Biden to widespread fraud allegations in some states that he lost, while he and his supporters spread baseless claims about the state of Pennsylvania in this election. Similar allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 elections had led to Trump’s staunch supporters storming the US Capitol building on January 6, 2021.

“IF THERE IS FRAUD IN THE ELECTION, I WILL LOSE” Trump claims during his rallies that he expects a great victory in the elections on November 5th and says he will only lose if it is a “rigged election.” The final court of appeal for future challenges to the election will be the nine-member US Supreme Court. The Supreme Court, which has six conservative justices appointed by Trump, granted him immunity against charges stemming from actions he took while in office.
