Several Republican senators, including Intelligence Chairman Marco Rubio and top Trump ally Lindsey Graham, said the president's claims simply weren't accurate.
President Donald Trump's continued attacks on voting by mail are false and should cease—before they hurt Republicans at the ballot box.
In a subsequent post, the president said that election officials sending unsolicited ballots to voters"should give it up NOW, before it is too late, and ask people to go to the Polling Booths and, like always before, VOTE. Otherwise, MAYHEM!!! Solicited Ballots are OK."Several Republicans, including one of his closest Capitol Hill allies, said Trump's claims simply weren't true.
Another Republican in a fierce fight to hold on to her seat said the mail-in process in her state has a long history of success. Democrats have suggested that Trump is trying to question the integrity of the election just weeks away as a precursor to refusing to accept the outcome over claims of mass voter fraud. But it could backfire, given many of the president's supporters are elderly and cast their ballots by mail.
