Trump offers $1mn reward for tips leading to election fraud conviction

US president offers payout days before midterm vote that will shape balance of power in Congress

Trump offers $1mn reward for tips leading to election fraud conviction

President Donald Trump has pledged a US$1 million reward for information leading to the conviction of individuals involved in alleged voter fraud, ahead of the US midterms. The reward is offered for any reports of voter fraud in past elections or the upcoming 2026 Midterm Election. Trump's announcement comes as Democrats are currently leading in polls, with the Nov3 elections just eight days away.

Trump's claim of winning the 2020 presidential election, which has been repeatedly debunked, underscores the baseless nature of his allegations. The source notes that Trump provided no details on how the reward would be funded or administered. The potential for a Democratic victory has raised concerns about stalling Trump's agenda and exposing his administration to congressional investigations during his final two years in office.
