President Trump said Monday he will lead a “movement” to scrap mail-in ballots and certain voting machines from U.S. elections, saying paper ballots with watermarks are more reliable. Mr. Trump wrote in a lengthy Truth Social post that the effort would begin with an executive order to bring “honesty” to the 2026 midterm elections. “Remember, the States are merely an ’agent’ for the Federal Government in counting and tabulating the votes,” he said. “They must do what the Federal Government, as represented by the President of the United States, tells them, FOR THE GOOD OF OUR COUNTRY, to do.”
Mr. Trump criticized mail-in ballots days after a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. After the summit, Mr. Trump told Fox News that the Russian leader referenced potential fraud in the 2020 election. “He said, ’Your election was rigged because you have mail-in voting,’” Mr. Trump said. Any attempt by Mr. Trump to have a bigger say over vote-counting will be met with pushback from Democrats, who fear the president will try to fix the midterms in his favor to retain GOP majorities in Congress.
