Trump offers reward for reporting voter fraud

US President Donald Trump has offered a $1 million reward for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of those involved in voter fraud during previous elections or the upcoming 2026 midterm elections, according to a post on his social media platform Truth Social. Trump emphasized his commitment to ensuring electoral transparency and addressing alleged irregularities in the voting process.

The offer comes as the November 3 midterm elections approach, a pivotal contest for control of both chambers of Congress that could shape Trump's legislative agenda and the balance of political power in Washington. The midterm elections, held every four years at the midpoint of a president's term, determine the composition of the House of Representatives and about one-third of the Senate.

Trump's approval rating has reportedly dropped to 37%, according to the Wall Street Journal, a low point for a president entering midterm elections in recent history.
