Trump’s 2026 midterm plan to rig elections faces uphill odds
Vox reports that Trump’s 2026 midterms are being framed around attempts to interfere with voting—from calls to “take over the voting” in numerous jurisdictions to a Fulton County raid used to justify potential seizure of ballots, and possible ICE near polling sites. The piece also notes Tulsi Gabbard’s attendance at the raid and a national-security framing voiced by allies. Despite these ominous developments, experts warn that institutional resistance and legal checks make a large-scale success unlikely, even as the events underscore a concerning shift in how election integrity is approached.
