Trump supporters are gathering in front of polling stations.

  • November

    3rd

    is big

    election day

    in the USA * - the US President is elected.

  • For months, the discussions have

    revolved

    around

    electoral fraud

    , fueled by incumbent President Donald Trump.

  • Election observers from

    both parties should ensure fair elections.

  • This

    news ticker

    is updated regularly.

Update from October 12, 9.25 a.m.:

After a week and a half break,

Trump

has resumed

the

election campaign

.

Speaking to his supporters in

Orlando

, Florida, the

US President

said he felt "so strong!"

As observers expected, he is staging his

infection

and

further downplaying

the risk of the

pandemic

.

"They say that I am immune," said

Trump

during the speech.

"I can move around in this crowd (...), hug everyone, the men and the wonderful women," joked the 74-year-old.

“I'm going to

kiss

everyone in this audience

.

I will kiss the guys and the beautiful women (...).

I'll just give you all a big, fat kiss, ”

Trump

continued.

As his

personal physician Sean Conley had

explained,

Trump

had now

tested

negative for the

virus

several times

.

Other data also suggest that “the

president is

no longer contagious”.

Trump fears electoral fraud - mishap in Ohio fuels his claim

Update from October 12th, 3:20 pm:

Last Friday,

US President Donald Trump

saw himself

confirmed again: “A rigged election” he wrote on Twitter.

Shortly before, he had learned that in Ohio * more than 49,000

ballot papers

, equivalent to 21 percent of

election

letters, had been sent to the wrong

voters

.

The Ohio Secretary of State and the electoral board disagreed, however, that the elections would be bipartisan and fair.

"It was a serious mistake that we are working hard to correct," said the board.

Every

vote is

counted.

Due to a technical problem, there was

confusion

among the voters.

2020 US election: Trump fears postal voting fraud - Democrats worried

First report from October 12, 1:50 p.m.:

Washington - There are still around three weeks until the next

presidential election

in the USA.

Much points to an exciting

November 3rd

- especially because of discussions about possible

electoral fraud

and the question of whether

Donald Trump will

manage to win

the election

again, contrary to the

polls

.

For months, the

US President

has been fueling

discussions about electoral fraud.

Above all, postal voting is a thorn in his side: his unsubstantiated thesis was “postal voting leads to massive electoral fraud”.

Millions of

ballots

would be sent to people who are not allowed to vote.

Experts

disagree with him.

But Trump has to come to terms with this form of voting, because in the

corona pandemic

, which continues to rage in the USA, the fear of infection is particularly great among some.

Many US states have expanded the ability

to vote

by

postal vote

*.

The Democrats criticize Trump for raising doubts about the

election result

with his statements

so that he might

not have to recognize

it in the event of a

defeat

.

They fear the Republican candidate could

declare

himself the

election winner

before the postal votes are even counted.

Because of the new and unprecedented massive amount of unsolicited ballots which will be sent to “voters”, or wherever, this year, the Nov 3rd Election result may NEVER BE ACCURATELY DETERMINED, which is what some want.

Another election disaster yesterday.

Stop Ballot Madness!

US election 2020: Thousands of election observers should ensure fair elections

In order for the election to run smoothly, the Republicans plan

to recruit

50,000 election observers

.

They are allowed to stay in polling stations,

watch

the

voting

and the counting of votes.

Provided you have been registered in advance.

Then they stand as witnesses for a fair election.

The

Democrats

* are also sending 10,000 such volunteers, as Trump's challenger Joe Biden announced.

In addition, there are the

independent election observers of

the Organization for Security and Cooperation (OSCE), who are supposed to ensure that elections are held in their member states.

This year, because of the corona pandemic, they are only sending a comparatively small observation team to the US election - 14 experts and 30 long-term observers are planned.

As the news

agency AFP

reports, the

OSCE

actually

estimates

100 long-term observers and 400 short-term observers who are

necessary

for the entire

electoral process

.

In front of the polling stations: group of Trump supporters intimidate voters

Meanwhile, there is growing fear that Trump supporters will

intervene in the election

as

unannounced election observers

.

The election officials do not want scenes like the one that happened in Virginia in mid-September.

At that time, the

New York Times

reported, according to a city official, voters felt intimidated because a group with Trump flags

shouted "four more years" in

front of a

polling station

in Fairfax, where there was already voting.

A few days earlier, at a

rally

in North Carolina

, Trump

urged his audience to go to polling stations as election observers and to prevent fraud.

"Watch the

stealing

and grieving!" He called to the followers.

In national polls, challenger Joe Biden ranks

months before Trump.

According to a 

poll by

 the 

Wall Street Journal

 and 

NBC News

 , he leads after 

Trump's 

infection with the coronavirus by 

14 percentage points.
