Debunking voter fraud claims in the U.S.
President Trump and his allies have refused to accept the result showing Joe Biden as the winner and are claiming that the election was stolen. The New York Times called officials in every state; they said that was simply not the case.
Election officials representing both political parties said there was no evidence that voter fraud or other irregularities played a role in the outcome of the presidential race.
Details: Officials in 45 states responded directly to The Times on the question of whether they suspected or had evidence of illegal voting. For four of the remaining states, The Times spoke to other statewide officials or found public comments from secretaries of state. None reported any major voting issues.
Counting continues: President-elect Joe Biden’s lead over Mr. Trump in the popular vote grew to five million.
