"Trump Urges Supporters to Protect the Vote in Democratic Cities"

Former President Donald Trump urged his supporters to "guard the vote" in Democratic-run cities such as Philadelphia, Detroit, and Atlanta during the 2024 election, citing unfounded claims of widespread election fraud in 2020. Trump's comments come as he continues to challenge the outcome of the previous election, despite multiple failed lawsuits. While he did not specify who he was asking to "go into" these cities, it aligns with the Republican National Committee's plan to recruit and train poll-watchers and volunteers. Critics express concern over Trump's rhetoric and its potential impact on trust in the electoral system.

Conservative activists in Virginia are using the upcoming tossup elections in the state as a dry run for their efforts to influence the 2024 elections. Inspired by Donald Trump's baseless claims of election fraud, these activists are recruiting supporters to serve as poll watchers and election workers, while also working to tighten voting laws. They are taking cues from the "Virginia Model," a memo that detailed ways to protect election integrity. Critics argue that these efforts could potentially disenfranchise voters and interfere with election outcomes.
