Former Speaker of the House Representative Nancy Pelosi recently suggested that Republicans may try to cheat in this year’s midterm elections by creating a “false count.”
Pelosi (D-Calif.) gave a sit-down interview this week with MS NOW’s Ali Vitali, where she reflected on her many years in office as she plans to retire in January at the end of her current term.
She also warned that voters should be “on guard” during the November midterms, which she believes Republicans could tamper with.
“I think if we look ahead to the midterm elections in 2026, you talk about the fact that you are confident that Democrats will retake the House, but I wonder if you have concerns about the midterm elections themselves?” Vitali questioned.
“Always. We always have concerns,” the Speaker Emerita answered.
“There are so many things that you can do to protect the election, and they are being done, whether it’s litigation or legislation or just mobilization, communication, all of that. But in addition to that, we have to be on guard as to what they may try to do to the technology. They may try to creep into the technology and create a false count,” Pelosi continued. ““There’s so many things that the Republicans will try to do to disrupt an election.”
