President Donald Trump holds a signed executive order in the Oval Office of the White House Tuesday, March 31, 2026, in Washington. It’s horrible what’s going on,” Trump said, repeating his false allegations about mail ballots as he signed the order. Trump is trying to illegally encroach on the right of states to run elections, they said. Trump’s accusations of widespread fraud are unfounded; a 2025 report by the Brookings Institution found that mail voting fraud occurred in only 0.000043% of total mail ballots cast, or about four cases per 10 million mail ballots. Trump himself has also used mail ballots, most recently last week in local Florida elections.
