President Donald Trump announced Sunday that Republicans plan to dispense a large “Election Integrity Army” to every single state for the 2026 midterms – invoking his debunked claims that the United States does not have fair elections.
“During my Historic Election in 2024, when I won every single Swing State, and decisively won both the Electoral and Popular votes by wide margins, the Republicans had an Election Integrity Army in every single State to preserve the sanctity of each legal vote.
We will be doing the same again in 2026, but it will be much bigger and stronger,” Trump wrote.
Trump did not elaborate on who would be part of the “Election Integrity Army” or how large it would be.

Trump’s post was in response to Democrats forming an election integrity task force aimed at identifying and mitigating threats to U.S. elections.
The president asserted the Democratic-led task force “will no doubt try to suppress Republican voters, and interfere with our Elections.”. »
