Trump orders DOJ to investigate mail-in ballots in Maryland
“In Maryland, they sent out 500,000 Illegal Mail In Ballots, and they got caught! So now, they’re going to send out 500,000 more Mail In Ballots, but nobody knows what’s happening with the first 500,000 they sent,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. “In addition, many of these Ballots went to Democrats, so any Republican running in Maryland doesn’t have a chance!” he added, noting that he was seeking an immediate investigation into the matter.
