Trump has openly reiterated concerns, claiming 2024 election fraud is widespread. He disagrees with several Republican politicians.

Supporters of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump are reportedly planning to protest the election results if Democratic candidate Kamala Harris wins.
Report: “Stop the Steal,” a campaign aimed at reversing Trump’s 2020 setback, has been relaunched. Some members are providing step-by-step instructions for disputing election results. This argument reinforces Trump supporters’ view that electoral fraud is the only way to lose.
According to CNN, court fights, pressure from state legislators to stop certification, and public demonstrations will culminate on January 6, 2025, when Congress will ratify the results. Trump supporters have increasingly claimed huge electoral fraud in podcasts, church sermons, and campaign rallies in key states.
Unlike his 2020 defeat to President Joe Biden, Trump’s fans seem to be planning these acts long before Election Day, with some asking for state lawmakers to reject the vote tally and directly award electoral votes to Trump.
Trump has openly reiterated similar concerns, claiming 2024 election fraud is widespread. He disagrees with several Republican politicians.

Political tensions have resulted in two attempted Trump assaults, a gunshot at a Democratic National Committee office, and suspicious parcels delivered to election offices this year. As Election Day approaches, some pro-Trump activists have issued warnings of violent behavior based on 2020 election complaints.
Former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn predicted Trump would “win all 50 states in a fair election.” He warned that supporters may get violent at polling places if the results were unclear.
CNN cited an upsurge in baseless charges from MAGA influencers, warning of a “conspiracy” to undermine Trump’s triumph. Extremists inspired by narratives of imminent war are becoming more violent, according to a Homeland Security document. The Global Project Against Hate and Extremism found that Telegram extremist discourse quadrupled in October.
According to Devin Burghart, the director of the Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights, certain radical organizations have shifted their discussions from public platforms to private chat rooms, unlike in 2020. He stated that this decision obscures post-election plans.
