A Sampling of Recent Election Fraud Cases from Across the United States – The White House

The Heritage Foundation’s Election Fraud Database presents a sampling of recent proven instances of election fraud from across the country. This database is not an exhaustive or comprehensive list.

It does not capture all cases and certainly does not capture reported instances that are not investigated or prosecuted.

It is intended to demonstrate the vulnerabilities in the election system and the many ways in which fraud is committed.

In addition to diluting the votes of legitimate voters, fraud can have an impact in close elections, and we have many close elections in this country.

Preventing, deterring, and prosecuting election fraud is essential to protecting the integrity of our voting process.

Reforms intended to ensure such integrity do not disenfranchise voters and, in fact, protect their right to vote.

Winning elections leads to political power and the incentives to take advantage of security vulnerabilities are great, so it is important that we take reasonable steps to make it hard to cheat while making it easy for legitimate voters to vote.
