Before the election even started, some people believed that there was going to be voter fraud and that there would be cheating in order to get one president in or another. Now, there have been some rumors going around about things that seem like they could be considered illegal or voter fraud. Here are some examples of things that Americans are saying.
In September there were photos surfacing of ballot envelops in landfills in California. There were claims that there was ballot dumping occurring all over the country. The county officials, however, published a statement that said these were old election ballots from a 2018 election and they were just empty envelopes. Another point that needs to be said about this is that the ballots for the 2020 election had not been sent out when these photos were taken.
There are also claims that there have been ballots in Wisconsin which were being given to people who had passed away. There were tweets that claim family members that had passed away were still getting ballots and were eligible to vote. Although this is possible, it is highly unlikely that it would be it at this level. It was rumored that 100,000 ballots were marked by people who had already passed away. This would mean that 100,000 votes would be illegal and could be the determining votes for who gets the presidency.
There are also allegations that votes aren't being counted correctly and that the mail-in votes should have been mailed in and counted by November 3rd.
